Abstract

The invention discloses a microwave photon radio frequency phase shifter based on spectrum processing and a phase shifting method thereof. The phase shifter comprises a laser source, an optical modulator, an optical fiber amplifier, a spectrum processing system, a photoelectric detector and an optical coupler. The optical amplification signal of the optical fiber amplifier is incident on the diffraction grating and is separated into a plurality of reflected light rays. Different spectral components in the plurality of reflected light rays are projected on different pixel points of each row, and the same spectral components are projected on different pixel points of each column. The laser processor modulates the amplitude and phase of the spectral component and forms a plurality of beat frequency light waves. Each optical coupler synthesizes an optical carrier wave and a first-order modulation sideband in a spectrum manner to generate an optical single sideband modulation signal. The optical single sideband modulation signal is subjected to beat frequency in a photoelectric detector to generate a radio frequency signal. The phase noise of the photon radio frequency phase shifter iseffectively restrained, the photon radio frequency phase shifting function is achieved, scanning at any angle can be achieved, flexibility is high, reconfiguration is achieved, and the phase shifter is suitable for large-scale phased array radar.
