Using an added resistor between drain and gate of the tail transistor, that works as a negative feedback, the tail transistor flicker noise is suppressed, and therefore, the 1\/f<jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup> output phase noise is reduced by 5.7[Formula: see text]dB. Also, the added resistor helps in better tail current shaping for phase noise reduction. The proposed oscillator is designed in a 0.18[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m CMOS technology with 1.8[Formula: see text]V supply and 3.6[Formula: see text]mW power consumption. Post-layout simulations predict a phase noise of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]dBc\/Hz for the proposed oscillator at 100[Formula: see text]KHz offset from 3.1[Formula: see text]GHz carrier frequency. Mathematical analysis is included in the paper for confirmation of the phase noise performance enhancement. The Figure of Merit (FOM) of the proposed oscillator is 188.3 and 190.6[Formula: see text]dBc\/Hz at 100[Formula: see text]KHz and 1[Formula: see text]MHz offsets, respectively. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218126620500358","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,8]],"date-time":"2019-04-08T09:05:03Z","timestamp":1554714303000},"page":"2050035","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["1\/<i>f<\/i><sup>3<\/sup> (Close-in) Phase Noise Reduction by Tail Transistor Flicker Noise Suppression Technique"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Jalil","family":"Mazloum","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Shahid Sattari Aeronautical University of Science and Technology, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6221-7200","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Samad","family":"Sheikhaei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Advancom Lab, School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, College of Engineering, University of Tehran, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0218126620500358BIB001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mejo.2018.01.017"},{"key":"S0218126620500358BIB002","first-page":"293","volume":"2","author":"Nugroho P.","year":"2012","journal-title":"Int.
