4. Steps of Noise Analysis in Design Automation
• First Generation: LTI-Noise Models
Linear Noise Analysis based on Schottky-Johnson-Nyquist
(Rohrer, Meyer, Nagel: 1971 - …)
Idea: „Linearization with respect to an operational point (constant solution)“
State Space
Small-signal noise models do not work if e.g. bias changes occur,
oscillators, more general nonlinear circuits
• Second Generation: LPTV Models
Variational Linear Noise Analysis of Periodical Systems
(Hull, Meyer (1993), Hajimiri, Lee (1998))
Idea: „Linearization with respect to a periodic solution“
State Space
Useful for periodic driven systems, however heuristic assumptions
and concept will be needed for oscillators (Leeson‘s formula)
• Third Generation: SDAE Models
Noise Analysis by Stochastic Differential Algebraic Equations
(Kärtner (1990), Demir, Roychowdhury (2000))
DAE System:
dx

0  g ( x, y )

f : Rn  R  Rn
for all  in a neighborhood of 0. If
• the Jacobi matrix Dx f (0,0) includes a pair of
imaginary eigenvalues  1, 2   j
• the other eigenvalues have a negative real part
d
• d   1 ( )  0  0
• the equilibrium point for   0 asymptotic stable
Then there exist
• an asymptotic stable equilibrium point for (  1 ,0)
• a stable limit cycle for (0,  2 )

Noisy state equation
Formally, one obtains:
noise
But:
How do we interpret this equation, if n’(t) is not
exactly known?
- need generic results
Noisy state equation
Necessary Assumption:
PLL-bandwidth is small compared with BW of the noise-process
- sufficient to model n’(t) as white noise again
- rewrite state equation as SDE
Normalized SDE
After time-normalization and introducing parameters
from linear PLL noise theory, one obtains:
Interpretation:
• SDE in the Stratonovich sense
• dw() = (t)d: increment of a normalized Wiener process
• BL: loop noise bandwidth,  : frequency offset between input
and VCO output, : SNR in the loop
The Euler-Maruyama scheme (1)
• based on Ito-Taylor expansion ) consistent with Ito-calculus
• Ito stochastic integrals ) evaluate Riemann sum approximation at
lower endpoint
Consider the scalar Ito-SDE
And the corresponding Euler-Maruyama scheme
The Euler-Maruyama scheme
Consistency with Ito-calculus
Noise term in the EM scheme approximates the Ito
stochastic integral over interval [tn, tn+1] by evaluating its
integrand at the lower end point of this interval, that is
Phase-acquisition time
• Time to reach locked state from an initial state
Transient PDF – Lock-in
Meantime between cycle slips
Simulation approach
• numerically solve the SDE using the Euler-Maruyama
scheme
• estimate probabilities using relative frequencies
• verify the accuracy with the results from the Fokker-Planck
method
• a relative tolerance level of 5% was allowed
Still no simulation required more than 5
minutes on a standard PC
9. Conclusions
•
Determinstic and stochastic behavior are related
in time domain and density function domain
•
Physical description of noise with a nonlinear Langevin
equation fails with respect to its physical interpretation
•
For thermal noise in nonlinear reciprocal circuits a welldefined theory is available (L.E. as approx.)
•
For nonhyperbolic circuits (e.g. oscillators) first concepts
for a geometric theory is available
There is a difference between P- and D-Bifurcation
•
•
Stochastic D-Andronov-Hopf theorem is illustrated by
means of versions of a Meissner oscillator circuit
