Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microwave phase shifting, in particular to a multi-octave phase shifting method and device. Background technique [0002] Microwave phase shifter is the basic building block of systems such as beamforming and microwave filtering. For conventional microwave phase shifters, bandwidth and accuracy are limited by electronic bottlenecks. In order to solve these electronic bottlenecks, a microwave phase-shifting scheme based on photonics is proposed. The photonics method has the characteristics of high frequency, large bandwidth, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. Due to the nonlinearity of the modulator, the microwave phase shifting scheme of photonics will cause second-order distortion. When the power and bandwidth of the input RF signal are large enough, the second-order distortion will overlap with the fundamental frequency signal, and the spectrum overlap cannot Use filters to eliminate, which will affe...
