9、Standard Frequency Generators.)Techniques to characterize and measure the frequency and phase instabilities in frequency and time devicesand in received radio signals are of fundamental importance to all manufacturers and users of frequency andtime technology.In 1988, the IEEE Standards Coordinating
10、 Committee 27 (SCC27) Time and Frequency, issuedIEEE Std 1139TM-1988, Standard Definitions of Physical Quantities for Fundamental Frequency and TimeMetrology, which defined and confirmed those measures of instability in frequency generators that hadgained general acceptance by researchers, designers
11、, and users throughout the world. In 1999, the SCC27issued a revision of this standard, IEEE Std 1139TM-1999.After issuing IEEE Std 1139-1988, SCC27 then embarked on a much more ambitious effort aimed not onlyat codifying proper terminology, but also at providing guidelines for the characterizations
12、 and use offrequency and time standards in realistic environments. In 1994, the SCC27 issued the result of this work,IEEE Std 1193TM-1994, which covered all important environmental conditions to which time and frequencydevices are normally exposed. This standard aids the designer and manufacturer in
13、 characterizing theirproduct and helps the user to properly accept, test, and confirm the specified behavior of devices in a varietyof environmental conditions.This standard is a revision of IEEE Std 1193-1994, which had been prepared by a previous SCC27consisting of Helmut Hellwig, Chair; John R. V

31、enerators1. Overview1.1 ScopeStandard frequency generators include atomic frequency standards, quartz oscillators, dielectric resonatoroscillators (DROs), yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) oscillators, cavity oscillators, sapphire oscillators, and thin-film resonator (TFR) based oscillators. Excluded are os
32、cillators with a frequency stability worse thanapproximately 10-4, as well as all other active and passive electronic equipment such as receivers,amplifiers, filters, and so on.There are three distinctly different areas of concern for environmental testing and specifications listed asfollows:a) Fitn
33、ess for specific user needs and actual environments (tests attempt to mimic the anticipatedenvironments)b) Characterization of the unit (tests attempt to provide “pure” coefficients for the variousenvironments)c) Reliability and survival (tests attempt to stress the unit by either going to extremes
34、of operatingranges or by repeated application of stimuli, e.g., cycling)This document puts emphasis on b) above. It provides guidance and a conceptual framework rather than aprescription of procedures that must be followed. It emphasizes proper methodology and practice; itcautions against pitfalls.
35、It also is concerned with economic issues, i.e., the potential resource requirementsand their minimization in test and measurement. In summary, this IEEE guide is not a specificationdocument, but rather a resource document for deriving specification statements.1.2 PurposeThis document describes the
36、nature of the environmental effects, as well as of the test methods to evaluate,quantify, and report (i.e., in specifications) the sensitivity of the frequency of standard frequency generatorsunder environmental influences such as magnetic fields, atmospheric pressure, humidity, shock, vibration,acc
37、eleration, temperature, ionizing radiation, and intermittent operation. Its primary purpose is to aid inwriting specifications and to verify specified performance through measurement. In addition, this documentIEEEStd 1193-2003 IEEE GUIDE FOR MEASUREMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL SENSITIVITIES2 Copyright 200
38、4 IEEE. All rights reserved.will help to assure consistency and repeatability of environmental sensitivity measurements, and theportability of results on particular frequency sources between the various segments of the time andfrequency community.1.3 SummaryThe very broad scope of this guide makes i
39、t desirable to introduce the many individual environmentalphenomena in summary fashion. The following subclauses will assist the user of this guide in rapidlyidentifying those passages of this document that are relevant.1.3.1 General considerations in the metrology of environmental sensitivities (re
40、fer to Clause 3)Environmental effects on precision oscillators may be evaluated bya) Identification of relevant parameters and transducing factors through correlation and spectralanalysesb) Control or removal of systematic effects (through curve-fitting, differentiation, etc.)c) Evaluation of residu
41、al random errors by means of two-sample variances and covariances and anerror budget analysisGiven an adequate measurement system, frequency reference, and control over experimental conditions,optimal data reduction involves choices as to parameter range, sampling time, averaging process, and math-e
42、matical model. Matters may be complicated by nonlinear responses, intercorrelations, different timeconstants, transient effects, and aging. If quasi-state conditions are not applicable, explicit account should betaken of the temporal and spatial profile of the stimulus.1.3.2 Acceleration effects (re
43、fer to Clause 4)The effects of acceleration on atomic standards and other precision frequency sources are reviewed, andguidelines are provided for the specification and testing of oscillator acceleration sensitivities. Thediscussion includes steady-state acceleration effects, gravitational change ef
44、fects, shock effects, andvibration effects. The vibration effects subclause includes sinusoidal vibration, random vibration, andacoustic noise effects. Also discussed are the effects of frequency multiplication and modulation index, theeffects on short-term stability, spectral responses at other tha
45、n the vibration frequency, interactions withother environmental effects, and other pitfalls.1.3.3 Temperature, humidity, and pressure (refer to Clause 5)In addition to vibration effects, variations in temperature, humidity, and/or pressure (THP) are the mostcommon environmental perturbations on terr
46、estrial precision oscillators. (Radiation is anotherenvironmental effect of particular relevance in space applications; refer to Clause 7.) These environmentalperturbations typically adversely affect the long-term behavior of oscillators. In general, the effects of THPon frequency are nonlinear and
47、interdependent. For example, the temperature coefficient of a frequencystandard is often directly dependent on the level of humidity. Hence, to obtain a complete model for even asingle device, let alone a whole model line, would be incredibly complex. The purpose is to arrive atguidelines and precau
48、tions for test methods used in determining the dependence of the output frequency ofprecision oscillators on THP that are tractable (non-burdensome). Overspecification, underspecification, orthe lack of specifications will lead to miscommunication. A perspective is offered for the manufacturer andth
49、e designer, as well as for the user, so that clear understanding and communication can occur. Theseguidelines and precautions encourage consistency and repeatability for measurement and specification ofthese environmental sensitivities.IEEEOF STANDARD FREQUENCY GENERATORS Std 1193-2003Copyright 2004 IEEE.
