This paper is describing a possible evolution of the optical harness in which the Local Oscillator, the calibration microwave signal and the clock reference are distributed in a single fiber thanks to Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). Due to the high sensitivity of the on-board RF Front-ends, degradation effects induced by the optical link can severely affect the overall performance. Therefore, system level requirements like signal isolation or phase noise are to be taken into account. Preliminary test measurements have shown that isolation over 70dB can be obtained in the RF domain. This study is a first step towards the fully distribution of signals through optic fiber in SMOS-like missions.","PeriodicalId":370693,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124951994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the proposed system, two filters with quadrature comb filtering responses are firstly constructed. The light wave of the laser source is modulated by a microwave signal under the carrier-suppression and single sideband modulation condition. The single sideband of the modulated light wave is simultaneously coupled into the two comb filters, at the outputs of which two optical powers having a quadrature relationship are detected. The microwave frequency to be measured is then estimated from the two quadrature power ratios (i.e., the sine-form and the cosine-form ratios), which are derived from a comparison between the two detected optical powers and a reference optical power. Since the ambiguity can be eliminated by using the two quadrature power ratios, the measurement range is enlarged from half free spectral range (FSR) to full FSR of the comb filtering responses. Thus the proposed approach using a single laser source can provide a larger measurement range, and especially a potential solution to the cascaded or parallel configurations.","PeriodicalId":370693,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123301984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
