Abstract

Abstract A band reflection type oscillator includes a GaAs-FET having a source, a gate and a drain in which the drain is connected to ground. A stripline is connected to the gate, and a dielectric resonator is provided adjacent the stripline in a magnetically coupled relationship therewith. A stripline stub is electrically connected to the drain and positioned adjacent the resonator in a magnetically coupled relationship therewith, thereby defining a positive feedback circuit through the drain, said stripline stub, the resonator and the stripline to the gate. By the positive feedback circuit, the oscillation stability is improved.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
A band reflection type oscillator comprising: an FET having a source, a gate and a drain; a stripline connected to said gate; a resonator provided adjacent said stripline in a magnetically coupled relationship therewith; and a first stripline stub having a length equal to (n/2+1/4) wavelength, wherein n is zero or a positive integer, said stub position adjacent said resonator in a magnetically coupled relationship therewith and having a first end which is connected to said drain and a second end which is open ended, thereby substantially grounding said drain in terms of high frequency and, at the same time, forming a positive feedback circuit between said drain and said gate through said resonator.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
A band reflection type oscillator comprising: an FET having a source, a gate and a drain; a stripline connected to said gate; a resonator provided adjacent said stripline in a magnetically coupled relationship therewith; and a first stripline stub having a length equal to (n/2+1/4) wavelength, wherein n is zero or a positive integer, said stub position adjacent said resonator in a magnetically coupled relationship therewith and having a first end which is connected to said drain and a second end which is open ended, thereby substantially grounding said drain in terms of high frequency and, at the same time, forming a positive feedback circuit between said drain and said gate through said resonator.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A band reflection type oscillator as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a high impedance stripline inserted between said drain and said first stripline stub.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
A band reflection type oscillator as claimed in claim 2, further comprising a second stripline stub connected to one end of said high impedance stripline close to said drain.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
A band reflection type oscillator as claimed in claim 1, wherein said FET is operating as a reverse channel type of FET.
