A Compact Photonics-Based Single Sideband Mixer Without Using High-Frequency Electrical Components

A new microwave photonic frequency up converter is presented. It is capable to generate an up converted upper or lower sideband RF signal with the other sideband and the LO being suppressed. Compared to the reported photonics-based single sideband (SSB) frequency up converters, the proposed structur...
