Abstract :
A microwave photonic filter using a novel multiwavelength erbium-doped fiber laser is proposed. The filter was experimentally demonstrated featuring reconfigurability by adjustment of output wavelengths number from the EDFL. Experimental results show excellent agreement with the simulated ones.
