The LPF is used for filtering the amplified noise from current mirror and central bias, even the coupling noise, so meaningless to compared with VCO tail current noise.
The efficiency of filtering depands on how low you can put the pole (area constrained), and how serious the noise comes from the current mirror and central bias.
I agree that big R will contribute a little more low-f thermal noise, however the increase can often be ingnored due to the sharp 1/f noise if the pole is less than 1lf corner.
After all, it is easy to do simulation to find the feasibility.

RC filter中电阻噪声会有影响的,我一开始也是这样考虑的。但是对于VCO来说,起作用的噪声主要在低频和二次谐波处,而不是整个RC网络带宽内的积分,也就是说噪声影响的带宽是固定的,而不是当R变大,带宽变小,当 ...
