Abstract :
In this paper, optimization of the loaded quality factor QL for reflection-type HBT oscillator is investigated. Main result is an optimum relation between the S parameter phases at the three transistor ports. To support this finding, a 35.5 GHz MMIC VCO phase noise better than -85 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset frequency is demonstrated.
