Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-band reconfigurable signal generating method based on a multi-frequency optical local oscillator. Two paths of optical local oscillator signals are generated, wherein at least one of the paths is a multi-frequency optical local oscillator signal; one optical local oscillator signal therein is used as an optical carrier to electro-optically modulate a low-frequency reference signal to the optical carrier, so as to generate a carrier-suppressed single sideband signal; the carrier-suppressed single sideband signal is coupled and frequency mixed with the other optical local oscillator signal, and each of the frequency components is divided as an independent channel; each channel signal is subjected to photoelectric conversion and delay processing respectively, thereby generating multiple radio frequency sub-band signals in different bands and at different times; and splicing and combining the radio frequency sub-band signals to obtain a reconfigurable signalwith randomly adjusted bandwidth, time width and center frequency. The invention also discloses a multi-band reconfigurable signal generating device based on the multi-frequency optical local oscillator. The signal bandwidth, the time width, and the center frequency of the present invention are flexible and variable; and the bandwidth and time width of the signal can be further extended.
