abstract = "This paper describes a low phase noise low dc power quadrature voltage controlled oscillator (QVCO) with a reflection-type IQ modulator. The QVCO using a standard bulk 0.18-μm CMOS process achieves a low phase noise of -115 dBc/Hz at 1-MHz offset frequency, a figure of merit (FOM) of - 191 dBc/Hz, and a core dc power consumption of 5.8 mW with a supply voltage of 1.8 V. The tuning frequency of the QVCO is from 13.4 to 14.4 GHz. The amplitude and phase errors of the QVCO are within 0.5 dB and 3°, respectively. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this work demonstrates the best FOM among all the reported Si-based QVCOs above 10 GHz.",
