A continuously tunable microwave photonic notch filter with complex coefficient based on phase modulation

A continuously tunable microwave photonic notch filter with complex coefficient based on phase modulation is proposed and demonstrated. The complex coefficient is generated using a Fourier-domain optical processor (FD-OP) to control the amplitude and phase of the optical carrier and radio-frequency (RF) phase modulation sidebands. By controlling the FD-OP, the frequency response of the filter can be tuned in the full free spectral range (FSR) without changing the shape and the FSR of the frequency response. The results show that the center frequency of the notch filter can be continuously tuned from 17.582 GHz to 29.311 GHz with FSR of 11.729 GHz. The shape of the frequency response keeps unchanged when the phase is tuned.     

A tunable microwave photonic filter with complex coefficient based on slicing spectrum and stimulated Brillouin scattering

In this paper,we propose a method to realize microwave photonic filter(MPF) with complex coefficient,whose central frequency f 0 and 3 dB bandwidth are tunable.The complex coefficient is realized by multi-wavelength optical source and stimulated Brillouin scattering(SBS).The central frequency of the filter is tuned by adjusting the phase shift caused by SBS without changing its frequency response.The frequency selectivity of filter can be improved through increasing the bandwidth of broadband optical source(BOS) or decreasing wavelength separation to increase the taps of MPF.The mainlobeto-sidelobe suppression ratio(MSSR) of the filter is affected by the weight of each tap.When the length of fiber is 0.5544 m in birefringence fiber loop mirror(FLM),the MSSR is improved by 18.55 dB compared with that without the weight controlling.     

Harmonic suppressed photonic microwave filter

This paper proposes a photonic microwave filter based on wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) of multiple optical carriers and dispersive media. Harmonic suppression is obtained using nonuniform tap spacing to extend the filter free spectral range by a Vernier effect. The experimental results presented are in excellent agreement with theory.     

Microwave photonic notch filter with complex coefficient based on four wave mixing

A microwave photonic notch filter with a complex coefficient is proposed and demonstrated based on four wave mixing (FWM). FWM effect of two single-frequency laser beams occurs in a highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF), and multi-wavelength optical signals are generated and used to generate the multi-tap of microwave photonic filter (MPF). The complex coefficient is generated by using a Fourier-domain optical processor (FD-OP) to control the amplitude and phase of the optical carrier and phase modulation sidebands. The results show that this filter can be changed from bandpass filter to notch filter by controlling the FD-OP. The center frequency of the notch filter can be continuously tuned from 5.853 GHz to 29.311 GHz with free spectral range (FSR) of 11.729 GHz. The shape of the frequency response keeps unchanged when the phase is tuned.     

A variable coefficient microwave photonic filter based on multi-wavelength fiber laser and Mach-Zehnder interferometer

A microwave photonic filter（MPF） with variable coefficient is proposed and demonstrated, which is constructed by a multi-wavelength fiber laser and Mach-Zehnder interferometer（MZI）. Through changing the slope characteristics of Mach-Zehnder interference spectrum adjusted by optical variable delay line（OVDL）, the conversion from phase modulation（PM） to intensity modulation（IM） is realized. The multi-wavelength fiber laser with Lyot-Sagnac optical filter has variable wavelength spacing. So the designed filter has a variable number of taps and tap weights. As a result, the tunable range of passband center frequency is 2.6 GHz. The reconfigurability of MPF can be also realized by adjusting the output of fiber laser.     

Negative coefficient band-pass microwave photonic filter with improved mainlobe-to-sidelobe suppression ratio by Sagnac interferometer

A tunable negative coefficient band-pass microwave photonic filter (MPF) with improved mainlobe-to-sidelobe suppression ratio (MSSR) by a Sagnac interferometer (SI) is experimentally demonstrated. The negative coefficient characteristic of MPF is achieved by using the phase modulation technology. The central frequency of the band-pass MPF is tunable continuously by changing the wavelength separation of multi-wavelength optical carriers. A 38-tap negative coefficient band-pass MPF whose MSSR is increased by about 6.371 dB is achieved in experiment by apodizing the tap coefficient with the Sagnac interferometer.
