All-Optical and Broadband Microwave Image-Reject Receiver Based on Phase Modulation and I/Q Balanced Detection

Image-reject radio frequency (RF) receiver is the backbone of modern RF systems, but often suffers from limited bandwidth, local oscillator (LO) leakage, even-order distortion, and I/Q imbalance. A wideband photonic image-reject RF receiver based on two phase-modulators (PMs) in a Sagnac loop and an...

Zusammenfassung:Image-reject radio frequency (RF) receiver is the backbone of modern RF systems, but often suffers from limited bandwidth, local oscillator (LO) leakage, even-order distortion, and I/Q imbalance. A wideband photonic image-reject RF receiver based on two phase-modulators (PMs) in a Sagnac loop and an I/Q balanced detector is proposed. In the experiment, excellent I/Q amplitude balance (
