Hybrid synthesizer based on phase-lock loop (pll) driven direct digital synthesizer (dds)_ Mohd Ibtisyam Idris_E3_2017_MFAR
Pembangunan pensintesis frekuensi telah berkembang saban tahun dari model yang besar kepada model yang kompak mudah alih dan yang terkini berbentuk modular. Oleh kerana perkembangan teknologi yang pesat terutama dalam industri telekomunikasi dan sistem pertahanan ketenteraan, permintaan pensistesis frekuensi yang berprestasi tinggi semakin meningkat. Kajian ini membincangkan mengenai penggabungan antara fasa kunci gelung (PLL) dan pensintesis digital langsung (DDS) menjadi sebuah system hibrid PLL didorong DDS. Kajian ini tercetus kerana kekurangan informasi dan kerja-kerja penyelidikan mengenai prestasi sistem hibrid seperti ini. Malah, melalui penggabungan dua struktur pensintesis menjadi sistem hibrid mampu mengatasi kekangan yang dihadapi oleh pensintesis yang berdiri bersendirian. Prestasi yang dinilai ialah seperti hingar fasa, kelajuan pensuisan dan ketulenan spektra dan keputusan yang diperolehi telah dibandingkan dengan DDS. Peningkatan prestasi hanya ditunjukkan untuk kelajuan pensuis mod FCWS. Manakala terdapat degradasi untuk prestasi seperti hingar fasa, sub harmonik dan rujukan palsu. Keputusan harmonik dan kelajuan pensuisan mod biasa di antara dua sistem adalah sama. Walaupun sistem yang dicadangkan mempunyai beberapa kelemahan, tetapi prestasi yang ditunjukkan oleh sistem tersebut masih mampu beroperasi untuk aplikasi yang berprestasi tinggi. Terdapat banyak peluang dan kerja-kerja penambahbaikan yang boleh dibuat supaya menjadi salah satu reka bentuk yang terbaik yang terdapat di pasaran sekarang. Throughout the years, the development of a frequency synthesizer has evolved from large and heavy benchtop models to the compact size handheld synthesizer and now in modular form. Due to the fast-growing technology in wireless telecommunication industries and high expenditure or budget allocation to improve the military and defense system, the frequency synthesizer has become one of the highest demand instruments in the market now. The research will focus on conventional Phase-Lock Loop (PLL) and latest technology of Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) and combine to become a hybrid PLL driven DDS synthesizer. This research was triggered since there was minimum work that has been covered and undetermined performances for such hybrid design. Furthermore, the problems faced for standalone synthesizers can be overcome through the hybrid system design. Phase noise, switching speed and spectral purity was the performance evaluated for the proposed setup and was compared with a standalone DDS synthesizer. Results shows the FCWS switching speed improved but there was degradation seen on phase noise and spectral purity particularly on the subharmonics and reference spurious. The harmonics and normal mode switching speed shows no difference between both systems. Although there was some performance degradation observed, the proposed setup performances are still under specifications for high performances applications and there are rooms for future improvement to be one of the best synthesizer designs that the market could offer. 1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Overview
