Photonic analog-to-digital coonversion using a robust symmetrical number system

A photonic analog-to-digital converter (ADC) based on a robust symmetrical number system (RSNS) was constructed and tested. The analog signal to be converted is used to amplitude modulate an optical pulse from a laser using three Mach-Zehnder interferometers (MZI). The Mach-Zehnder interferometers...
