Title :
Fiber optic manifolding in RF systems
Author_Institution :
HRI Labs., USA
Abstract :
Summary form only given. I describe the utilization of RF photonic manifolds for signal gathering and beam steering applications in antenna systems. We focus on the receiver architecture for radars and communication systems and how photonic downconversion, LO distribution and beamsteering are applied.
