Generating Large Time–Bandwidth Product RF-Chirped Waveforms Using Vernier Dual-Optical Frequency Combs by Mohammed S. Alshaykh

“…In this work, we propose a photonics-based large-TBWP RF chirp generator utilizing dual optical frequency combs with a small difference in the repetition rate. By employing dispersion modules for frequency-to-time mapping, we convert the spectral interferometric patterns into a temporal RF sinusoidal carrier signal whose frequency is swept through the optical shot-to-shot delay. …”
