The FM noise of a CW Gunn oscillator

Measurements indicate that the FM noise spectrum of a Gunn oscillator is comprised of two components. The first is a white component which depends on loaded Q and carrier power, and the second is a flicker component which depends on the oscillator's voltage pushing.
