OTOH with this Dirac-style resonator feeding one collects the noise sidebands from order 1 to MAXINT and one needs to align all these harmonics nicely. It also does not help against low frequency effects that require stability over many cycles, such as the 1/f region. And it is only half the work. We not only need to feed the resonator, we also want RF from it. Thus, to stay in this principle, the sustaining amplifier would have to fetch its input also in Dirac style. Now we are pretty close to an ultra wideband nonlinear loop gain. Any low pass filtering would have to be done in front of the feeding pulse former, or the harmonics will not align. And apart from BW limiting we need something to set the net loop phase to 0. The pulse output of the sustaining amplifier is also not nice to use unless we want to feed a sampler or 1:2-FlipFlop. Output filtering via the resonator, say, in the elegant Burgeon(?) style would also be forbidden. As I see it, L/H creates a lot of problems, and worse, it does not provide a design algorithm, even if we accept the complications. regards, Gerhard, DK4XP (Arghh, I'm writing this on a 4*2 thread machine at 3.8 GHz, and Thunderbird produces typing delays... Turbo-C on Z80 with a Wyse-50 terminal felt better.) _______________________________________________ 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.
