Abstract
A photonic radio-frequency receiver with mirror frequency suppression function, in which a single modulator is utilized to form a photoelectric oscillator so as to generate high-quality and low-phase-noise optically generated local oscillators, without the need for an external local oscillator source, and at the same time, another radio-frequency port is used as a radio-frequency signal input port, thereby allowing a compact structure. By properly setting a bias point for the two-electrode modulator and orthogonally synthesizing two branches of intermediate frequency signals respectively generated by the upper and lower sideband beat frequencies of the modulated optical signal, the photonic radio-frequency receiver realizes the functions of receiving radio-frequency signals and suppressing mirror frequency signals. The present disclosure can realize a photonic mirror-frequency suppression receiver.
