A Vector Network Analyzer(VNA)can be used to identify oscillation frequency of a signal source with moderate or low Radio Frequency(RF)power if certain care is taken according to experimental results.Unlike reported in the literature that a resonant peak of measured absolute value of reflection coefficient greater than 1 that corresponds to an oscillation frequency,we report that by observing the magnitude change of one-port reflection coefficient across the entire swept frequency range,a sudden peak or a dip corresponds to an oscillation frequency,this is more accurate than other reports.In addition,using modern VNA as a signal detection method can significantly reduce measurement time and increase measurement accuracy to VNA capability for developing emerging signal generating devices at early stage,especially for planar,large quantity and operating in a wide frequency range.
