Abstract :
From the point of signal processing in frequency domain, a scheme for the return-to-zero (RZ) to nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) data format converter based on a tunable microwave photonic filter is experimentally demonstrated. A two-tap, intensity modulated and dispersion involved system is introduced to realize the conversion function. The experimental results shows good performance, tunability and reconfigurability.
