Abstract
In this paper a method for the control of the stability of power amplifiers is extended to oscillators under large-signal conditions. It is based on the conversion matrix of the oscillator, computed from a harmonic balance simulation. This allows the suppression of possible spurious frequencies or the intentional generation of spurious signals (e.g. at sub-harmonic frequency).
