Plans for planar: phase-noise reduction techniques in voltage-controlled oscillators

To ensure spectral purity in modern RF signal sources, microwave oscillators and voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) must be designed to perform with low phase noise. Despite the growth of monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), microstrip planar technology is still used for developing l...
