Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a device for phase-stable transmission of microwave local oscillator signals through optical fibers in the field of microwave photonics, in particular to a long-distance phase-stable optical fiber transmission device for microwave signals based on a delay-locked loop. Background technique
[0002] At present, many precise measurements require the long-distance phase-stable transmission of microwave signals, such as the distribution of atomic clocks, the distribution of local oscillator signals in millimeter-wave interferometric antenna arrays for astronomical detection, and so on. The traditional microwave signal transmission uses a phase-stable coaxial cable, but due to the large loss of the cable, it cannot support long-distance transmission of more than tens of kilometers. Optical fiber is considered to be the best medium for long-distance transmission of microwave signals due to its low loss and anti-electromagnetic interfe...
