Abstract :
A frequency doubling approach for optical generation of tunable microwave and millimetre-wave signals is proposed and verified experimentally. The experimental setup is based on an optical phase modulator and a simple uniform fibre Bragg grating. The generated signal is of high quality and can be tuned.
