Abstract
The ever expanding requirements of modern electronic receivers on decreasing platform sizes will mandate the use of multifunctional systems in the near future. Herein, we present an architecture for such a receiver based on optical upconversion techniques. This technology has already been utilized to demonstrate a distributed passive millimeter-wave imaging array that operates in real time.
