Abstract :
Recent advances in microwave photonics in connection with optical WGMR provide new capabilities for small platforms, such as UAS. Examples of devices developed with this technology at OE waves include oscillators, filter, up/down converters and receivers. This approach promises the ability to provide ISR equipment where size weight and power is of premium.
