Abstract: | A new cavity coupling structure has been developed for low-phase noise oscillator applications. Unlike the conventional cavity coupling structures that show absorption at the resonant frequency, the new structure shows high reflection at resonance similar to dielectric resonators, making it suitable for the reflective oscillators. The fabricated cavity resonator showed a loaded Q-factor of 1200 and the X-band oscillator using the new resonator showed phase noise proper-ties of -57 and -83 dBc/Hz at 1 and 10 kHz offset, respectively. This is comparable to the best results of dielectric resonator oscillators using HEMTs at this frequency range |
