Abstract
Some of the basic issues of optical control and interconnects of MMICs are discussed with special consideration given to the application of optical technology to the new generation of phased-array antennas utilizing a very large number of individually controlled MMIC T/R modules. In these antennas, the fiber optic links are used to achieve synchronization of the T/R modules and signal coding; in optical beamforming in the microwave domain, where the control elements, such as microwave phase shifters and attennuators are activated by control signals transmitted via optical fibers; and in beamforming in the optical domain. Optial fibers are also used in control of passive microwave components such as microstrip lines and dielectric resonators. (I.S.)
