Wow. Thanks Magnus, Tom, and Bob for all of the information you provided to me about oscillator simulations and particular noise types. I'm going to read and digest it and see if I can get some better results. I'm also going to purchase stable32 since it seems to be the gold standard for precise

[time-nuts] Simulating Oscillator Noise: Difficulties Simulating Flicker FM Noise

2010-04-22 Thread Kyle Wesson
Hello, I am trying to simulate oscillator noise by following the procedure outlined in James Barnes' paper: Simulation of Oscillator Noise (1984) 28th Annual Frequency Control Symposium. In the paper, Barnes explains the models of the five typical types of noise that occur in oscillators and a

Hello, I am working to determine the Allan variance of an individual oscillator from a series of three paired measurements as described in the paper by Gray and Allan A Method for Estimating the Frequency Stability of An Individual Oscillator (NIST, 1974, tf.nist.gov/general/pdf/57.pdf). In this
