  • Abstract
    A suppressed carrier optical heterodyne link was demonstrated experimentally with high dynamic range. An efficient laser ring oscillator for heterodyne links is proposed where an intracavity modulator outputs a suppressed carrier signal while recirculating the carrier around the ring.
