A cascaded Mach- Zehnder interferometer （MZI） lattice was used for PRRM, and a linearly chirped fiber grating （LCFG） was used as TTE. The basic principle was analyzed by using a Gaussian input short pulse and its characteristics were discussed by numerical simulation. It is shown that the proposed scheme is feasible for MMW signal generation and has potential merits for practical application of radio over fiber （ROF） technology.展开更多

In this approach, the optical Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator （MZM） is biased to suppress the odd-order optical sidebands, the fiber laser operates in the second-order rational harmonic mode, and a fiber Bragg grating （FBG） notch filter is used to block the optical carrier. When the MZM is driven by a fixed radio-frequency （RF） source of 10 GHz, a stable MMW signal of 40 GHz with the phase noise better than -76 dBc/Hz at 1-kHz offset is generated.展开更多
