Abstract

The pulse signal's transients and low duty cycle characteristics lead to excessive omission and erroneous amplitude measurement in signal capture. We offer a combined microwave photonics frequency-time mapping and optical delay electrical pulse measurement system. Beneficial from the true delay of a long fiber with several paths, the pulse is extended to have a more significant duty cycle so as to boost the capturing possibility. We adopt the bandpass filter to avoid sampling the low-frequency range, prevent phase noise from affecting the signal measurement, and improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This solves the phase noise issue induced by multiple optical delay paths. The proof-of-concept experiments conduct that a 25 μs pulse with a 50 μs period is stretched to a continuous wave, and the SNR is improved by 7 dB.
