A Fourier domain mode locking (FDML) optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) based on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is proposed to generate complementary linearly chirped microwave waveform (LCMW) pairs with flexibly-reconfigurable frequency sweep range and excellent frequency sweep linearity. The FDML OEO involves an SBS-based dual-passband microwave photonic filter with its two passbands linearly and fast scanning in the opposite direction at an identical frequency sweep rate, which is realized by using a single laser source to obtain a fast frequency sweep probe light and a two-tone pump light through electro-optic modulation. A proof-of-concept experiment is carried out to demonstrate the proposed scheme. In the experiment, frequency-sweep-range-reconfigurable complementary LCMW pairs with period of 20.5 μs are generated in the range of 5 GHz to 18 GHz, where the maximum time-bandwidth product and chirp rate are 82000 and ±0.195 GHz/μs, respectively. Most importantly, the frequency sweep linearity is measured to be 1.76%, which is much better than the results obtained in the existing FDML OEOs. |
