Theoretical Demonstration of Security Improvement of Optical Phased Array Based on Optically Injection-Locked Lasers

The high security of optical phased array (OPA) signals is an important requirement for OPA-based wireless communication (OWC). We propose a method improving the OWC systems using optically injection-locked (OIL) semiconductor lasers. theoretically demonstrate amplitude and phase modulation OIL-OPA elements by controlling injection-locking parameters OIL When Taylor window function applied as profile OPA transmitter, sidelobe level decreases 22 dB unsecured distance reduces 10 times compared to case without function. In addition, area factor becomes 0.8%.
