Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. When the power of the source to be measured is lower than the ideal power, the fixed IF gain will reduce the carrier power of the source to be measured after quantization compared with the noise power, thereby reducing the dynamic range of phase noise measurement; when the power of the source to be measured is higher than the ideal power When , the fixed IF gain may cause ADC saturation, resulting in wrong measurement results;

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic measurement, and in particular relates to a digital frequency discrimination phase noise measurement device and method. Background technique [0002] Phase noise is an important index to measure the short-term frequency stability of a signal source, and it has an important impact on the performance of an electronic system. For example, in the radar T / R component, the phase noise of the local oscillator will affect the radar detection distance. In the communication system, the phase noise of the carrier will cause adjacent channel interference and demodulation errors. In the satellite navigation system, the phase of the uplink and downlink carriers Noise will affect the design cost and resource occupation of satellite payloads. The phase noise indicators of these electronic system signal sources are getting higher and higher. At the same time, in order to improve the target resolution and commun...
