Abstract

The invention relates to a photonic generating device for tunable multi-output microwave signals, which belongs to the technical field of microwave photonics. The photonic generating device for tunable multi-output microwave signals is composed of a tunable laser, a first coupler, a Mach-Zehnder modulator, a DC voltage-stabilized power supply, an arbitrary waveform generator, a tunable optical filter, an Erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier, a phase modulator, an isolator, a highly-nonlinear optical fiber, a circulator, a second coupler, a photodetector, a microwave power amplifier, an electric filter, a power splitter and a spectrum analyzer. Narrow-linewidth and good-spectral purity microwave signals are generated through a photoelectric oscillation technology based on stimulated Brillouin scattering effects of the multi-pumped and highly-nonlinear optical fiber, and the spectral line width of the output signals of the microwave signal generating device is equal to the spectral linewidth of Brillouin gains. Through changing the output of the arbitrary waveform generator, the amount of the pump light and the wavelength can be changed, and thus, multi-frequency output of the microwave signals can be realized, and the frequency is tunable in a certain range. The device disclosed in the invention has an optical output mode and an electric output mode.
