Low-phase noise microwave local oscillation generating device and method

Abstract

The invention provides a low-phase noise microwave local oscillation generating device. After a broadband microwave oscillator feedback signal passes by a broadband microwave signal conditioning circuit, down mixing is carried out on the broadband microwave oscillator feedback signal and a local oscillation signal of a certain frequency of a high-purity down-conversion local oscillation group to convert the broadband microwave oscillator feedback signal from a microwave frequency band with higher frequency into a radio frequency band with lower frequency, and then the broadband microwave oscillator feedback signal is mixed with low-noise radio frequency local oscillation, phase discrimination is carried out on a mixed output middle frequency signal and a reference signal from a fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop, and a phase discrimination output is added to a control end of a broadband microwave oscillator after passing by a loop integrator, so that necessary low-phase noise microwave local oscillation is output. The low-phase noise microwave local oscillation generating device provided by the invention overcomes the technical bottleneck that in a sampling mixing method adopted in traditional frequency synthesis, near carrier phase nose for synthesizing the local oscillation signal is constrained by sampling local oscillation phase noise, and a phase noise index of the microwave synthesis local oscillation signal is further improved.
