            Abstract : 
We analyze the most effective way to obtain microwave-photonic filter´s coefficients, specifically implemented by electro-optical modulators. These devices are attractive to obtain desired number and sign of coefficients which results in high tunability and reconfigurability of filters. One has to decide which device will be the most appropriate in obtaining desired frequency response of the filter.
