Abstract
Conventionally, radar systems use bulky mixer stages at different levels for frequency conversions. In this work, we discuss Up/Down conversion methods based on Optical heterodyne principle that reduces the complexity of modern radar systems. The work is supported with typical modeling and experimental analysis results.
