Photonic generation of high-power pulsed microwave signals with peak powers up to 7.2 watt

摘要

Using a modified uni-traveling carrier photodiode we demonstrate photonic generation of pulsed 1 GHz and 10 GHz signals with peak power levels as high as 38.6 dBm (7.2 W) and 36.4 dBm (4.4 W), respectively.
