  • Abstract
    Experimental results of indirect optical injection locking of two X-band oscillators are presented. Large signal modulation of the laser diode generates harmonics, which are employed to synchronize both oscillators over 110°C using an S-band master source. Both laser diode and FET oscillator nonlinearities can be exploited to achieve frequency multiplication and obtain subharmonic injection locking at X-band and above. The merits of these different methods are evaluated based on locking range and FM noise characteristics.
