  • Abstract
    The performance of a compact sapphire microwave oscillator under vibration is measured in three orthogonal axes, and net vibration sensitivity is determined as less than 5 × 10-10 per g. This result is compared with the vibration sensitivity of other oscillator technologies reported in the literature, together with other important oscillator characteristics
