DEVICE AND METHOD FOR SIGNAL SYNTHESIS COMPENSATING THE FREQUENCY OFFSET OF OPEN LOOP

Disclosed is technology related to a signal synthesis apparatus that corrects an offset between a closed loop and an open loop to output a frequency-modulated signal. The signal synthesis apparatus includes a VCO configured to output a frequency signal in response to an input voltage, an energy storage unit configured to output a voltage using stored energy, a VCO input selector configured to connect the VCO to input of the energy storage unit in the case of a closed loop mode and connect the VCO to output of the energy storage unit in the case of an open loop mode, and a digital controller configured to control an operation mode of the VCO input selector and transmit an offset control signal for adjusting an offset of a voltage output from the energy storage unit to the energy storage unit.

Highly linear-gain oscillator

A variable frequency oscillator includes an inductance unit having a first inductance, a first variable capacitor coupled across the inductance unit, and a second variable capacitor coupled across a part of the inductance unit. The inductance of the part of the inductance unit coupled by the second variable capacitor is a proportion of the first inductance.
