Abstract

A novel scheme which utilizes the microwave photonic filter technique for the optical generation of a microwave signal based on an active mode-locked fiber laser is proposed. A microwave signal generator using a microwave photonic filter based on a 2: 1 optical coupler with a fiber loop which can effectively suppress a low-order frequency component of the microwave signal is demonstrated and a ∼10-GHz microwave signal is achieved based on an active mode-locked fiber laser with the original pulse repetition rate of ∼5 GHz.
