Summary :

We provide an overview of techniques for the photonic generation of arbitrary RF waveforms, particularly those suitable for impulse radio or multi-band ultrawideband (UWB)-over-fiber transmission, and chirped microwave waveforms, with an emphasis on microwave photonic filtering and optical spectral shaping followed by wavelength-to-time mapping. We discuss possibilities for integrating the various device and component technologies with silicon photonics.
