Abstract

Antenna arrays Frequency Integrated optics Microwave integrated circuits MMICs Optical arrays Optical control Optical fibers Optical mixing Phased arrays
Experimental results are presented demonstrating the operation of optically controlled phased array antennas at C-band. More specifically, experimental results on optically controlled 2*4 MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) based active T/R (transmit/receive) modules over the frequency of 5.5 to 5.8 GHz are presented. Custom-designed fiber-optic links have been used to provide distribution of data and frequency reference signals to phased array antennas used in the T/R Level Data Mixing architecture system.< >
