@conference{10902/21121, year = {2020}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10902/21121}, abstract = {This work presents an investigation of mutual injection locking of oscillator circuits through inductor coupling. A realistic analytical formulation provides insight into system behavior, with coexistent oscillation modes. The stability of these modes is determined through a perturbation analysis, extended to the calculation of the phase-noise spectral density. An analytical expression enables an understanding of the phase-noise reduction mechanism. The cases of two coupled oscillators at the fundamental frequency and two distinct oscillators at a 1/3 frequency ratio are considered. Possible applications include the oscillator phase-noise reduction and the implementation of sensors using the phase shift between the two oscillator elements.}, organization = {Work supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (ERDF/FEDER) TEC2017-88242-C3-1-R.}, publisher = {Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.}, publisher = {IEEE/MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS), Los Angeles, California, USA, 2020, 381-383}, title = {Mutual injection locking of oscillator circuits through inductor coupling}, author = {Suárez Rodríguez, Almudena and Ramírez Terán, Franco Ariel and Melville, Robert}, }
