“…Here, we can see an appreciable difference between these two cases as the thermally driven mode had a very low amplitude, thus resulting in a huge contribution of frequency noise sources related to the white noise. Once either P1 or P2 is in the self-oscillating regime, we observe that, in both cases, the different noise contributions are the ones that can be expected in OM oscillators: the white phase (1/f 0 ), white frequency (random phase walk, 1/f 2 ), and flicker frequency (1/f 3 ) noise types [101], in good agreement with the Leeson's model [112]. Phase noise values around -100 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz were observed, on par with other OM microwave oscillators [44,101,111,114,117] as well as with our results in the previous chapter.…”
