Abstract :
Experimental tuning of a microwave photonic filter is achieved by varying the optical link length. Filtering effect is obtained by the interaction of an externally modulated multimode optical source and a dispersive channel. Experimental transmission of TV-signal using this filter is also described in this paper.
