Abstrakt:	Photonic systems that use a variable or chirped optical wavelength and a single Mach-Zehnder modulator have been analyzed to determine the relation between optical bandwidth and spur free dynamic range. A novel wavelength insensitive biasing technique is proposed which significantly reduces the second-order distortion and increases the optical bandwidth. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
