Abstract
In order to fulfill the reliability requirements in field application, the high reliability magneto-optic (MO) switches are used to realize an optical true time delay (OTTD) line. This paper first analyzes the characteristics of MO switch, then the topologies of OTTD are analyzed. Latter, two key supporting aspects are put forward, including measuring method and integrated structure design. In this article, we present and demonstrate a 5 bit optical fiber delay line (FDL) based on MO switches and fiber. The FDL exhibits the maximal delay error of 2.98 ps in 32 states.
