You might want to look for R. Adler, "A study of Locking Behavior in Oscillators"< Proc of IEEE, v 61, pp1380-1385, Oct 1973 Or K. Kurokawa "Injection Locking of Microwave Solid State Oscillators", same issue, pp1386-1410.
Those seem to be papers that get cited a lot. The coupled oscillator phased array schemes rely on the fact that the phase of the locked oscillator has a consistent relationship to how far the frequency is from the "rest" frequency.. if you push the rest frequency with a DC voltage (for instance), then you can get a DC voltage to phase control, which is quite convenient. If you have a whole bunch of oscillators, you can just push the ones at the edge, and the ones in the middle couple to the ones next to them and the phase has a nice linear curve across the array. I am reminded of our recent discussion on this list of an array of coupled mechanical oscillators. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Kit Scally > Sent: Wednesday, February 10, 2010 3:55 PM > To: [email protected] > Cc: Kit Scally > Subject: [time-nuts] Injection locking > > Hi, > > > As others have already noted, there's a paucity of circuits or down to > earth advice on this topic - unless your poison is "millimetre wave" > technology. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
