Abstract :
A new photonic signal processor that is tunable, and which can also generate multiple taps including bipolar taps, is presented. The technique offers scalability, and is efficient because it uses wavelength re-use. Experimental results demonstrate a wide fractional tuning range of 35% for the filter and operation with high FSR.
