802.11 a/g phase noise - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is an actual curve/plot/figure showing the official IEEE 802.11a/g phase noise requirements for the oscillator?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards,
Andrew Wu

I'm not really familiar with 802.11, but I'd be surprised if the phase noise was specified in the 802.11 spec. I think you need to derive that one.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
