A Novel Approach for Generating Active Inductors for Microwave Oscillators –Mathematical Treatment and Experimental Verification of Active Inductors for Microwave ApplicationsHabilitationsschriftDer Fakultät Maschinenbau, Elektrotechnik und Wirtschaftsingenieurwesen der Brandenburgischen Technischen Universität Cottbus zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Ingenieurwissenschaften habilitatus (Dr.-Ing. habil.)vorgelegtvon Prof. Dr.-Ing.

Dirk KillatFakultätsratsbeschluss: vom 14.12.2011 Preface and Appreciation This work is the result of my research in the area of microwave oscillators and my desire to replace the costly microwave tuning diodes with an active circuit that allows the replacement of the inductor in an oscillator with such a circuit and yet optimized both in output power and phase noise. The related research work was only possible based on many measurements and tests performed at Synergy Microwave Corporation. I am very grateful for the support of the Engineering team, specifically, Dr.-Ing Ajay Kumar Poddar and Rucha Lakhe, who supported the improving of the manuscript, many of the time-consuming measurements, literature acquisitions and test and measurement.
