Abstract :
A photonic analog-digital link with third-order distortion suppression is proposed and demonstrated. 1 GSPS photonic sampling and digitization of singleand two-tone signals with digital linearization resulting in >25 dB distortion suppression with a 500 MHz instantaneous bandwidth is achieved.
