Abstract
A novel approach for determining the amplitude and frequency of nonlinear FET oscillators is presented. The nonlinear elements of the active device are modeled by the Volterra series method. The frequency and amplitude of oscillation are then calculated by solving two algebraic equations. Experimental results obtained from a constructed oscillator confirm the validity of the theory, the discrepancy between measured and calculated frequency and amplitude values being less than 10%Keywords
