چکیده
Time-multiplexed optical line-by-line pulse shaping with specific application to rapid update radio-frequency (RF) waveform generation is modeled. The effects of fundamental pulse shaping parameters on generated RF waveforms are numerically analyzed. Experimental and theoretical results are compared and are in excellent agreement.

Time-multiplexed photonically enabled radio-frequency arbitrary waveform generation with 100 ps transitions.
For the first time, to our knowledge, radio-frequency arbitrary waveforms are time-multiplexed within 100 ps by integrating wavelength switching, optical frequency comb generation, and spectral line-by-line shaping. The novel time-multiplexed scheme demonstrated here can be extended to wide user specifications and faster waveform transition time.

We provide an overview of techniques for the photonic generation of arbitrary RF waveforms, particularly those suitable for impulse radio or multi-band ultrawideband (UWB)-over-fiber transmission, and chirped microwave waveforms, with an emphasis on microwave photonic filtering and optical spectral shaping followed by wavelength-to-time mapping. We discuss possibilities for integrating the vari...

LLE Review, Volume 76 225 The OMEGA laser fusion program at LLE calls for complex, temporally shaped optical pulses incident on fusion targets.1 The pulse-duration and rise-time specifications of these optical pulses dictate an electrical pulse–shaping system bandwidth of approximately 0.1 to 10 GHz. The optical pulses are created by imprinting an electrical equivalent of the desired optical en...

We present a programmable multitap microwave photonic filter with an arbitrary phase response operating over a broad bandwidth. Complex coefficient taps are achieved by optical line-by-line pulse shaping on a 10 GHz flat optical frequency comb using a novel interferometric scheme. Through high-speed real-time measurements, we demonstrate programmable chirp control of a waveform via phase filter...
