Abstract

<para xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> We demonstrate a photonic monocycle pulse frequency up-conversion scheme for ultrawideband (UWB)- over-fiber applications using nonlinear polarization rotation arising in a semiconductor optical amplifier. For the first time, we have successfully realized the photonic up-conversion of UWB monocycle pulses with an optical local oscillator signal at 24 GHz in the whole <emphasis><formula><tex>$C$</tex> </formula></emphasis>-band. The up-converted UWB monocycle pulse at 24 GHz exhibits a power spectrum density fitting the UWB emission mask. After electrical down-conversion, the UWB monocycle pulse has shown low distortion induced by the optical mixing process. </para>
