Abstract :
A novel multiple-frequency Brillouin fiber-ring laser utilizing a ring cavity is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. And eight wavelengths can be obtained from this laser. Based on this laser, the mechanism for generation of high frequency microwave signal is proposed and partly realized. To confirm the feasibility of this method, 11GHz microwave signal is obtained by the experiment.
