Abstract
The photonic generation of millimeter-wave (MMW) ultra-wideband (UWB) signal using microfiber ring resonator (MRR) is proposed. The central frequency and 10-dB bandwidth of generated MMW-UWB signal varying with Q factor of MRR are analyzed. We successfully demonstrate a generation of 24-GHz MMW-UWB signal by utilizing a microfiber ring resonator with free spectrum range of 20Â GHz and Q factor of 19,000. The generated MMW-UWB signal has a power spectrum density complying with Federal Communication Committee requirements.
