7.3 FGU

The Frequency Generation Unit (FGU) comprises VCO and PLL. It is the core module of the
whole TX-RX system. This circuit provides accurate carrier frequency during transmission,
and stable LO signal during reception. It has a direct influence on the performance of the
system.

7.3.1 Working Principle of PLL

The 19.2 MHz frequency generated by the reference crystal oscillator goes to PLL for division,
generating the reference frequency (i.e. step frequency f1). Meanwhile, the frequency
generated by VCO generates another frequency (f2) through the frequency divider in PLL.
Then frequencies f1 and f2 are compared in the phase detector (PD), to generate continuous
pulse current. The current goes to the loop filter for RC integration, and is then converted to
