Abstract

In this article, a broadband frequency measurement system based on optical spectrum manipulation and stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which can implement wide-range and high-resolution frequency measurement, and generate corresponding broadband interference signals in some frequency bands, that is, it has versatility. Since the frequency range of the pump light to excite SBS is expanded based on the optical spectrum manipulation and high resolution is ensured by the narrow scattering spectrum of SBS, high-resolution spectrum measurement covering a wide frequency band is finally implemented. In addition, the double sideband pump light can be used as the source of electronic interference signal. In the experiments, the frequency measurement range of the proposed system is tested to be 0.03–44 GHz, and the resolution is up to 3 MHz. Furthermore, the frequency measurement and electronic interference sharing the same work band can be carried out in the ranges of 6.3367–7.8367 GHz and 20.36–22.16 GHz.
