Simulation of Coupled Oscillators Using Nonlinear Phase Macromodels and Model Order Reduction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oscillators are used in many integrated RF circuits. Since their behavior is highly nonlinear, full system simulation can be expensive. Furthermore, the behavior of an oscillator can be (un)intendedly perturbed by that of other components and oscillators. We apply a method to build nonlinear phase macromodels of voltage controlled oscillators and show how these can be used to predict the behavior of oscillators under perturbation. Model order reduction techniques are used to decrease simulation times. Numerical results for realistic design illustrate the proposed approach.

A Phase Noise Reduction Technique in LC Cross-coupled Oscillators with Adjusting Transistors Operating Regions
In this paper, an intuitive analysis of a phase noise reduction technique is done, and then a modified structure is proposed to achieve higher phase noise reduction than the original one. This method reduces the impact of noise sources on the phase noise by decreasing closed-loop gain in zero-crossings points and moving this high closed-loop gain to the non-zero-crossings points. This reduction...
متن کاملA Quadratic Method for Nonlinear Model Order Reduction
In order to simulate and optimize e ciently systems which include micromachined devices, designers need dynamically accurate macromodels for the those devices. Although it is possible to develop such macromodels by hand, it would be vastly more e cient if it were possible to automatically derive such macromodels directly from physical coupled-domain simulation. Although such automatic technique...
متن کاملEfficient multiscale simulation of circadian rhythms using automated phase macromodelling techniques.
Circadian rhythm mechanisms involve multi-scale interactions between endogenous DNA-transcription oscillators. We present the application of efficient, numerically well-conditioned algorithms for abstracting (potentially large) systems of differential equation models of circadian oscillators into compact, accurate phase-only macromodels. We apply and validate our auto-extracted phase macromodel...

متن کاملPPV-HB: Harmonic Balance for Oscillator/PLL Phase Macromodel
A unique feature of oscillators is that small but sustained external perturbations lead to unboundedly large changes in phase, thereby making standard harmonic balance (HB) inapplicable to realistic oscillator phase macromodels. In this paper, we rectify this situation by presenting a novel extension of HB that is capable of handling oscillator phase macromodels. Key to the new method, termed P...
