Abstract :
This paper provides an update on research and development within the Australian defence industry of microwave photonics systems and their application to electronic warfare (EW) receivers. The major developments have diverged into two primary streams: the development of EW receivers to accommodate the signal transmission characteristics of microwave photonic links and development of broadband optical signal processing components.
