The first proposed scheme is designed by using a dual-parallel dual-drive Mach–Zehnder modulator and the second one using dual-parallel dual-phase modulator. The radio frequency (RF) message signal and the local oscillator (LO) signal are feeding these two parallel connected modulators. By using a tight control of the system parameters, we have reported an effective optical carrier suppression, resulting in high conversion efficiency. We show that when the link is amplified, the relation between mLO and mRF plays a vital role and gives a high value of conversion efficiency, where key parameters lead to the LO and RF modulators modulation index. The conversion efficiency is improved by 5.72 dBm, compared with previously published work using DP-MZM, and 28.4 dBm, compared with the cascaded connected modulator. An experimental demonstration of a proof of concept is also carried out where the intermediate frequency to noise ratio of 69.5 dB is reported.

High conversion efficiency has been achieved by suppressing the optical carrier at the DP-DDMZM, con- figured as phase modulators, or DP-DPhM, enabling high amplitude of the LO and RF sidebands into the receiver, achieving high conversion efficiency, high Spurious Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) and the capability to work over a wide frequency range. In the first proposed configura- tion, with DP-DDMZM working as a full phase modulator, by using a tight control on the Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) MZMs parameters, and controlling the electrical signal at both electrodes [11]–[13], the residual carrier has been effec- tively suppressed. The second method, configured with DP- DPhM [14] is considered with the adequate phase difference between each sets of dual phase modulator, achieving high IF amplitude with the low spur and high SFDR. Furthermore, the simulation design approach alongside the theoretical anal- ysis of the proposed structure, should allow the optimisation of the microwave photonic downconversion performance, for the benefits of photonic signal transmission.

Our simulation results show that the carrier is the dominant output optical component with the highest consumed power. For the parallel modulator connection, the carrier is not required at the frequency downconversion. The average power travelling to the receiver can be reduced by decreasing input power, such as the carrier power. By optical carrier suppression in the modulated link, the modulated depth will increase and will result in an increase of SFDR. The high conversion efficiency can also be obtained by car- rier suppression, subsequently, we should find the means to suppress the carrier to the maximum extent. The parallel connection of phase modulators can be used to convert the phase modulated signal into intensity, and suppress or cancel the carrier [4], [14], [19]. The residual carrier can be cancelled by a combination of differential signal detection of both modulators. This can be achieved by the phase shifting, and at some configuration by proper bias- ing. One means of carrier suppression is the inverse biasing of both DP-DDMZM.

  • Tektronix Television Systems Measurement Concepts 062-1064-00
    Measurement Concepts Television Systems TELEVISION SYSTEM MEASUREMENTS BY GERALD A. EASTMAN MEASUREMENT CONCEPTS INTRODUCTION The primary intent of this book is to acquaint the reader with the functional elements of a television broadcast studio and some of the more common diagnostic and measurement concepts on which video measurement techniques are based. In grouping the functional elements of the broadcasting studio, two areas of primary concern can be identified -- video signal sources and the signal routing path from the source to the transmitter. The design and maintenance of these functional elements is based in large measure on their use and purpose. Understanding the use and purpose of any device always enhances the engineer's or technician's ability to maintain the performance initially designed into the equipment. The functional elements of the broadcast studio will be described in the first portion of this book including a brief discussion of how these functional elements interrelate to form an integrated system. In the broadcasting studio, once the video sources and routing systems are initially established, maintaining quality control of both the sources and the routing path becomes one of the major concerns of the broadcast engineer. Since the picture information is transmitted as a video waveform, quality control can in large measure be accomplished in terms of waveform distortions and subjective picture quality degradations. Four major test waveforms, each designed to observe and measure a specific type of distortion, are commonly used in a broadcast studio. The diagnostic information contained in each waveform will be described in the latter portion of this book in terms of the measurements commonly made with each of the four waveforms.
