Abstract

A novel and useful mm-wave frequency generation system is disclosed that takes advantage of injection locking techniques to generate an output oscillator signal with improved phase noise (PN) performance and power efficiency. Low frequency and high frequency DCOs as well as a pulse generator make up the oscillator system. A fundamental low frequency (e.g., 30 GHz) signal and its sufficiently strong higher (e.g., fifth) harmonic (e.g., 150 GHz) are generated simultaneously in a single oscillator system. The second high frequency DCO having normally poor phase noise is injected locked to the first low frequency DCO having good phase noise. Due to injection locking, the high frequency output signal generated by the second DCO exhibits good phase noise since the phase noise of the second DCO tracks that of the first DCO.
