Abstract
Abstract A UHF-feedback oscillator for a frequency range of at least 300 MHz to 1000 MHz includes an amplifier stage, a voltage controlled tuning filter and a feedback quadripole. The feedback quadripole comprises a two- or three- loop helical waveguide resonator. Thus, the oscillator is easily adjustable to its oscillating condition within the very wideband frequency range of between 300 MHz and 1000 MHz and can be miniaturized in the simplest manner.
