Down-Conversion Gain of an All-Optical SOA-MZI-Based Mixer Using Bandpass Sampling

The frequency conversion is one function of utmost importance in radio over fiber technologies. In this letter, we propose an optical implementation of a radio frequency down conversion based on a bandpass sampling technique realized by a semiconductor optical amplifier Mach-Zehnder interferometer u...
