Abstract

The invention provides a photonic-filtering-based optoelectronic oscillator, which adopts an amplified feedback laser (AFL) as an optical domain filter instead of a conventional electric domain filter. A longitudinal intermode beat frequency microwave signal of the AFL serves as a drive source of a modulator for modulating laser injected into the AFL to form a self-feedback oscillatory system to further realize high-quality microwave and optical clock output functions.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of photoelectric hybrid technology, in particular to a photoelectric oscillator based on photon filtering. Background technique [0002] High-quality microwave signals have important applications in optical fiber, microwave, satellite communications, radar systems, precision instruments and meters, and high-precision measurement. Most of the high-quality microwave sources widely used at present rely on high-Q microwave energy storage devices (such as dielectric resonator oscillators) or surface acoustic wave devices (such as quartz crystal oscillators). These two types of devices perform well when working in the frequency band of several MHz to several GHz. However, when operating in the X-band or even higher frequencies, the quality of the microwave signals generated by these devices deteriorates sharply as the frequency increases due to the need for multiple frequency multiplications. The emergence of an Optoelect...
