Abstract

The invention discloses a microwave photon phase shifter based on a dual-polarization modulator and relates to the technical fields of microwaves and optical communication. The microwave photon phase shifter is mainly applied to microwave photon signal processing. The microwave photon phase shifter is shown in attached drawings and comprises a tunable laser source, a radio frequency signal source, a dual-polarization modulator, an optical band pass filter, a polarization controller, a polarizer and a photoelectric detector. The dual-polarization modulator is composed of Y branching units, upper and lower parallel Mach-Zehnder modulators MZM1 and MZM2 and a polarization beam combiner. According to the scheme, single side band modulation is achieved by utilizing the dual-polarization modulator and the optical band pass filter, the phase difference between optical carrier waves and side bands is changed by combining with the polarization controller and the polarizer, and accordingly dephased microwave signals are obtained after frequency beating of the photoelectric detector. 360-degree continuous phase shift of the microwave signals can be achieved, and the amplitude can be kept unchanged. In addition, the microwave photon phase shifter has the advantages of being simple in structure, easy to operate, wide in band width and the like.
