Abstract
An RF pulse generator may comprise a pair of phase-locked lasers that output optical tones offset in frequency by a set amount. The resulting optical signal is periodically transmitted and blocked by an optical switch to generate a pulsed optical signal. A photodiode is irradiated with the pulsed optical signal to generate a corresponding pulsed RF signal having a frequency corresponding to the frequency difference of the optical tones generated by the phase-locked lasers. An antenna may be connected to and driven by the photodiode to electromagnetically transmit the pulsed RF signal.
