  • Abstract
    Calculations reveal the possibility of 10-15 dB flicker phase noise reduction in a bridge-type oscillator. A super-low phase noise S-band bipolar transistor oscillator based on a shielded sapphire disc dielectric resonator (SDDR) used as a filtering circulator bridge is considered. With shielding sizes optimized, the SDDR Qφ- factor was ⩽3 × 105 at room temperature. An effective (loaded) oscillator Q-factor of greater than 3 × Qφ, i.e., of about 1 million, was realized
