This paper is divided into two major parts. Following a brief introduction that establishes
some definitions and assumptions, Section II updates our earlier study on the limits of the RF …

High bandwidth, low voltage electro-optic modulators with high optical power handling
capability are important for improving the performance of analog optical communications …

In this invited paper we review state-of-the-art opto-electronic oscillator technologies with a
single optical loop, which represent emerging components for continuous-wave (CW) …

Previously published analytical models for the noise figure of an amplifierless fiber-optic link
fail to predict the measured performance, with a discrepancy of 1.1 dB at 1 GHz that …

The noise figure of an analog fiber-optic link was reduced to 6 dB at 1 GHz by using a bias-
shifted Mach-Zehnder modulator with an optical input power of 1 W. The link noise figure …

Radio communications in the range of 60 GHz enable multi-Gigabit/s network access in
indoor environments. Due to the propagation characteristics of such signals only very short …

The goal of this paper is to evaluate the impact of photonic beamformers on the amplitude
and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of RF signals received by a phased array antenna. To …
