Abstract :
Optical fibers constitute an attractive alternative to conventional wiring for the distribution of high spectral purity microwave signals. The main application here investigated is the remote synchronization and control in Ku-band of the elements of an onboard active antenna. The emphasis is put on the receiver which is realized using a synchronized oscillator
