i(t)∝E(t)·E(t)*
∝DC1-2cos[β1cos(2πft)]cos[β2s(t)]-2sin[β1cos(2πft)]sin[β2s(t)]
+2cos[β1cos(2πft)]-2cos[β2s(t)]
wherein DC1Is a direct current term, and by observing the above formula, we can find beta2Very small, so cos [ beta ]2s(t)]Can be treated as a constant term, i.e. a direct current term.
The post-sort simplification after the substitution of the above formula can be re-expressed as:
i(t)∝DC2-4J11)cos(2πft)sin[β2s(t)]
wherein, DC2For representing a direct current term, J11) Is the corresponding first order coefficient after applying the bezier expansion.
In an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1, the microwave signal generating apparatus may further include: arbitrary waveform generator 6, microwave source 7, voltage source 8.
And the arbitrary waveform generator 6 is connected to the radio frequency input port of the first branch arm and is used for generating baseband signals with different formats. In an embodiment of the present invention, when the baseband signal s (t) is a three-level signal, i.e., s (t) { -1, 0, +1 }. When s (t) is equal to 0, the photocurrent only includes a direct current term, and no microwave signal is generated. When s (t) varies between +1 and-1, a microwave signal with a pi phase shift is generated. The exact pi phase shift depends on the polarity of the baseband signal rather than its amplitude. Thus, the present invention can be used to generate a background noise free phase encoded signal. Fig. 2 shows a three-level baseband signal from an arbitrary waveform generator, specifically in the format of a 13 barker code (-1, -1, -1, -1, -1, +1, +1, -1, -1, +1, -1, +1, -1), followed by a 39-bit 0, the three-level signal having a coding rate of 1 Gb/s. Fig. 3 is a waveform diagram of a simulated phase-encoded signal with a center frequency of 12GHz in a longer time scale. Fig. 4 is a waveform diagram of a phase encoded signal over a shorter time scale. Fig. 5 is information of the phase jump corresponding to fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a spectral diagram of a phase encoded signal.
In an embodiment of the present invention, when the baseband signal s (t) is a two-level signal, i.e., when s (t) is {1, 0 }. When s (t) is equal to 0, the microwave signal is not included in the photocurrent, i.e., there is no influence of background noise. When s (t) is equal to 1, a microwave signal exists, and the ultra-wideband signal meeting the FCC specification can be realized by controlling the duty ratio of the baseband signal. Thus, the present invention may be used to generate ultra-wideband signals free of background noise. Fig. 7 is a diagram of a two-level baseband signal from an arbitrary waveform generator, and fig. 8 is a diagram of waveforms over a longer time scale for an ultra-wideband signal compliant with FCC regulations. Fig. 9 is a waveform diagram of an ultra-wideband signal in compliance with FCC regulations on a shorter time scale. Fig. 10 is a spectral diagram of an ultra-wideband signal.
In an embodiment of the present invention, when the baseband signal s (t) is a single-chirp baseband signal, i.e., s (t) cos (kt)2) Then (c) is performed. The photocurrent can be modulated under small signalRewriting as follows
i(t)∝DC2-4J11)cos(2πft)sin[β2cos(kt2)]
≈DC2-4J11)J12)cos(2πft)cos(kt2)
=DC2-2J11)J12)[cos(2πft+kt2)+coS(2πft-kt2)].
Therefore, the photocurrent only contains the direct current term and the double chirp signal, and the invention can be used to generate the double chirp signal without background noise. Fig. 11 is a waveform of a single chirp signal given by an arbitrary waveform generator, the waveform having a bandwidth of 1GHz and a period of 1 μ s. Fig. 12 is a frequency-time distribution diagram of a single chirp signal. Fig. 13 is a time domain waveform diagram of a dual chirp signal having a center frequency of 12 GHz. Fig. 14 is a frequency-time distribution diagram of a dual chirp signal.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the microwave source 7 is connected to the rf input port of the second arm, and is configured to generate an rf signal.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the voltage source 8 is respectively connected to the bias voltage input ports of the first branch arm, the second branch arm, the third branch arm and the fourth branch arm, and is configured to provide a dc bias voltage as a first dual-drive voltage or a second dual-drive voltage, and finally configured to control the first phase difference or the second phase difference.
The invention provides a microwave signal generating device, which can generate a phase coding signal, an ultra-wideband signal and a double-chirp signal without background noise interference by providing three baseband signals, namely a three-level signal, a two-level signal and a single-chirp signal, wherein different microwave signals can be applied to different scenes, and the use cost is reduced. The non-background noise interference shows that the invention is not limited by an optical filter or an electric filter, and has good tuning capability and wide applicability. Compared with the scheme of the traditional electronic loop, the microwave photonic-based device provided by the invention has higher central frequency and bandwidth, expands the application range of the device, and also has the advantages of low loss, large bandwidth, good reconstruction capability and electromagnetic interference resistance.
