Microwave Signal Mixing by Using a Fiber-Based Optoelectronic Oscillator for Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) Systems
Two WDM channels at 1320 nm and 1312 nm carring RF signals are simultaneously up/down converted by a fiber-based optoelectronic oscillator. The conversion efficiency are found to be ~ -8 dB and the incoming signals has no effects on the local oscillator spectral purity.
