Abstract
We propose an ultra-wideband photonic compressive receiver based on random codes shifting with image-frequency distinction. By shifting the center frequencies of two random codes in large frequency range, the receiving bandwidth is flexibly expanded. Simultaneously, the center frequencies of two random codes are slightly different. This difference is used to distinguish the "fixed" true RF signal from the differently located image-frequency signal. Based on this idea, our system solves the problem of limited receiving bandwidth of existing photonic compressive receivers. In the experiments, with two channels of only 780-MHz outputs, the sensing capability in the range of 11-41 GHz has been demonstrated. A multi-tone spectrum and a sparse radar-communication spectrum, composed of a linear frequency modulated (LFM) signal, a quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signal and a single-tone signal, are both recovered.
