Locking bandwidth equations for electrically and optically injection-locked oscillators

Preliminary Studies on Injection Locking of Oscillators

Injection locking characteristics of oscillators are reviewed both theoretically and experimentally. Theoretical results coupled with experimental findings are presented. A simple method of deriving the equation for locking range is reported.

Locking Bandwidth of Actively Mode-Locked Semiconductor Lasers

The locking bandwidth of an actively mode-locked semiconductor laser is a measure of its tolerance to variations in the input drive frequency. At frequencies outside the locking bandwidth, the output pulses from the laser exhibit large amplitude fluctuations and timing jitter. This paper investigates the locking bandwidths of fundamentally driven and harmonically driven high-repetition-rate act...

A Study of Injection Pulling and Locking in Oscillators

This paper presents an analysis that confers new insights into injection pulling and locking of oscillators and the reduction of phase noiseunder locked condition. A graphical interpretation of Adler’s equation predicts the behavior of injection-pulled oscillators in time and frequency domains. An identity derived from the phase and envelope equations expresses the required oscillator nonlinear...

Spectral linewidth of autonomous and injection-locked flux-flow oscillators.

Frequency comb injection locking of mode locked lasers

The two-frequency problem of synchronization of the pulse train of a passively mode locked soliton laser to an externally injected pulse train is solved in the weak injection regime. The source and target frequency combs are distinguished by the spacing and offset frequency mismatches. Locking diagrams map the domain in the mismatch parameter space where stable locking of the combs is possible....
