چکیده
We describe recent progress in integrated microwave photonics in wideband signal processing applications with a focus on the key signal processing building blocks, the realization of monolithic integration, and cascaded photonic signal processing for analog radio frequency (RF) photonic links. New developments in integration-based microwave photonic techniques, that have high potentialities to be used in a variety of sensing applications for enhanced resolution and speed are also presented.

Design of continuously-tunable photonic fractional Hilbert transformer based on a high birefringent planar Bragg grating
A wideband and continuously tunable integrated fractional order photonic Hilbert transformer is proposed and demonstrated. The device is realized by a simple apodised Bragg grating within a germano-borosilicate high birefringent planar substrate, achieving a 120GHz operating bandwidth and fractional order tuning capability. The order of photonic Hilbert transform can be constantly controlled by...

متن کاملWindowing Effects of Short Time Fourier Transform on Wideband Array Signal Processing Using Maximum Likelihood Estimation
During the last two decades, Maximum Likelihood estimation (ML) has been used to determine Direction Of Arrival (DOA) and signals propagated by the sources, using narrowband array signals. The algorithm fails in the case of wideband signals. As an attempt by the present study to overcome the problem, the array outputs are transformed into narrowband frequency bins, using short time Fourier tran...
