Comparison of Analog R-F Photonic Links Using a Variety of Linearized Electro-Optic Modulators

摘要

The potential applications of high dynamic range analog r-f photonic links include antenna remoting, photonic-coupled phased-array antennas, and cable-television transmission. This paper compares the results obtained with a number of different modulator types and link configurations and gives recent experimental results. Further details on the analysis and results for some of the schemes can be found in a review paper that will appear later this year [Ref 1].
