Photonic-Assisted Generation of Flexible and Switchable Multi-Band Linearly Frequency Modulated Microwave Waveforms

A novel photonic scheme based on parallel dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DDMZM) to generate flexible and switchable multi-band linearly frequency modulated (LFM) microwave waveforms is proposed. In the scheme, a radio frequency (RF) local oscillator is applied to one arm of DDMZM1 and DDMZM2 wit...
