Low Instability, Low Phase-noise Femtosecond Optical Frequency Comb Microwave Synthesizer
The ability of a frequency comb from a femtosecond mode-locked laser to faithfully reproduce the properties of optical oscillators at microwave frequencies is examined. The fractional frequency instability of the femtosecond comb microwave synthesizer is 2 x 10/τ, and could improve by at least a factor of 10 upon elimination of excess photodetection noise. Phase-noise levels are also examined. ...
متن کاملGeneration of Ultra Low Phase Noise Microwave Local Oscillators from Optical Frequency Standards Using Femtosecond Laser Synthesis
The development of ultra stable femtosecond laser comb generators is resulting in the emergence of a method to transfer the fundamentally higher stability of optical frequency standards and oscillators to microwave frequency outputs. This is important for applications where coherent signal generation and reception is used e.g. Radar or Electronic Defence. The stability an...
متن کاملA Novel Noise Reduction Method Based on Subspace Division
This article presents a new subspace-based technique for reducing the noise of signals in time-series. In the proposed approach, the signal is initially represented as a data matrix. Then using Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), noisy data matrix is divided into signal subspace and noise subspace. In this subspace division, each derivative of the singular values with respect to rank order is u...

متن کاملApplications of the optical fiber to the generation and to the measurement of low-phase-noise microwave signals
The optical fiber used as a microwave delay line exhibits high stability and low noise and makes accessible a long delay (& 100 μs) in a wide bandwidth (≈ 40 GHz, limited by the optronic components). Hence, it finds applications as the frequency reference in microwave oscillators and as the reference discriminator for the measurement of phase noise. The fiber is suitable to measure the oscillat...
