Photonics-Assisted Bandwidth-Doubling Dual-Chirp Microwave Signal Generation With Freely-Tunable Central Frequency

A photonics-assisted dual-chirp microwave signal generation scheme is proposed based on electro-optic modulation and heterodyne detection. The dual-chirp microwave signal is generated by heterodyne beating between a dual-chirp optical waveform and a frequency-shifted optical carrier, where the dual-...
