Problems solved by technology

The currently reported microwave photonic filtering and optical analog-to-digital conversion schemes can only perform one of the functions of filtering or analog-to-digital conversion, and the two cannot be directly connected in the optical domain to achieve two functions at the same time
If connected by photoelectric conversion, not only the system is complicated, but also additional noise will be introduced

Abstract

An optical analog-digital converter with configurable frequency response sequentially comprises a controllable pulse shape optical sampling clock generating module, a repetition frequency doubling module, an electro-optical modulator, a multi-channel module, a photoelectric conversion module, an electric filter module, an electric analog-digital conversion module, a digital processing unit and a clock synchronization and aligning module. The optical analog-digital converter with configurable frequency response provides both analog processing and digitalization for broadband input microwave signals, system complexity is greatly reduced, and the problems, such as high insertion loss and signal distortion, due to respective filtration and sampling are avoided; system equivalent frequency response may be configured flexibly by adjusting time-domain shape of an optical sampling clock.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to optical analog-to-digital conversion, in particular to an optical analog-to-digital conversion device with configurable frequency response. Background technique [0002] Due to the limitation of "electronic bottleneck", electronic technology has been difficult to meet the increasingly higher frequency and bandwidth signal processing requirements in the fields of ultra-wideband communication, radar, high-end instruments and scientific research. Photon technology has the advantages of ultra-broadband, ultra-high speed, and high precision, and can effectively overcome the shortcomings of electronic technology. High-frequency broadband signal processing based on photonic technology is currently the focus of attention. [0003] Analog filtering can achieve the purpose of signal frequency selection, phase shift and delay, etc., and is one of the basic analog signal processing technologies. Due to the influence of "electronic bottle...
