  • Abstract
    We present a novel realization of a multiloop optoelectronic oscillator based on a wavelength multiplexed optical source and fiber Bragg grating reflectors. The oscillator exhibits a phase noise of -108 dBc/Hz at 10-kHz offset from the 10.2-GHz carrier while suppressing parasitic modes to below -80 dBc.
