Abstract
In future radar systems, highly complex synthetic waveforms are needed to perform sophisticated signal processing functions at high speed. An opto-electronic arbitrary radar waveform generator is proposed. It permits one to generate predefined waveforms by driving phase-amplitude distributions of optically carried microwave signals.
