Low noise master oscillator LNMO

Qualification Test Results of a Low Phase Noise Master Oscillator (LNMO) developped in the frame of an ESA ARTES project. After a short overview of the LNMO design, this paper presents the test results of the qualification tests conducted at the end of the development in 2012/2013. The objective was to validate the design of the Low Noise Master Oscillator versus space environment.
