Ultra-Wide Band, UWB VCO are required in mmW and Radar applications.

Single VCO bandwidth circuitry is similar single element antenna bandwidth and can be quantified between 5 -10 % fractional bandwidth, FBW.

To increase the absolute bandwidth, the VCO frequency can be increased to 2x, 4x, or 8x of the required center frequency.

Consequently, post LO is frequency divided version of VCO.

Effectively that reduces the number of VCO for pulling full frequency range in UWB application, hence smaller ASIC die size, i.e., lower cost.

Octave or its multiple octave VCO resonance frequency helps with LO spurious free or purity of the desired spectrum.

These VCO provide mmW PLL functionality for mmW and Radar applications.

Partner with ORTENGA for frequency planning of UWB mmW and radar systems and VCO design and development.

Can you explain a bit more the idea? It is not very clear to me how to make UWB VCO
