Abstract :
We present an overview of our work in instantaneous frequency measurement systems employing optical mixing and DC detection which are capable of measuring both the frequency and power of an RF over ultrahigh bandwidths from DC to 40 GHz. We particularly focus on all optical systems employing four wave mixing in highly nonlinear fibers.
