Abstract
The phase noise of an oscillator described by a known set of differential algebraic equations (DAEs) can be predicted by a) finding the steady state waveform of the oscillator, e.g., by using harmonic balance techniques or so-called “shooting” techniques, either of which involves developing a mathematical quantity known as the augmented Jacobian matrix; b) solving a prescribed linear system of equations that uses the augmented Jacobian matrix, the solution being called a perturbation projection vector (PPV), c) plotting a graph of the phase noise of the oscillator as a Lorentzian function of the solution of the prescribed linear system of equations. The prescribed linear system of equations which is used is the system of equations formed by setting a matrix product equal to a unit vector.
