Abstract
A tunable oscillator includes a first transistor, a second transistor connected in parallel with the first transistor, a noise feedback and bias network coupled to the first and second transistors, a planar coupled resonator network coupled to the transistors and a means for dynamically tuning the resonant frequency of the planar coupled network and the junction capacitance of the transistors.
