Phase Noise in Local Oscillator

[Jose Mora]

How can I introduce phase noise in a local oscillator?

[Ahmad Atieh]

Dear Jose,
you may add electrical or optical noise into the local oscillator laser through biasing the laser or to the optical output if you use the Laser Measured component. Also, you may address controlling the laser phase noise if you use the CW Laser Measured component, where there is more adjusting parameters to control the phase noise beside increasing the laser linewidth.
I recommend reading the datasheets of these two lasers for more information.
Regards,
Ahmad

Dear Ahmad,
I meant electrical local oscillator, not optical. I would like to fed the laser with an electrical signal coming from local oscillator with the typical phase noise.
Best regards,
Jose
