| Zusammenfassung: | A multiphase optical pulse generator for selective side band suppression of a pulse stream includes an unbalanced interferometer responsive to a pulse of the pulse stream to generate at least first and second replica pulses, a delay device for delaying the replica pulses relative to each other to define a free spectral range to include only one or both of a pair of selected spectral side bands to be suppressed, a phase shifting device for shifting the phase of the replica pulses relative to each other to align the free spectral range and create a combined multiphase pulse to suppress only one or both of the selected spectral side bands. |
