Abstract :
This article presents the architecture for an optoelectronic oscillator using the properties of an injection locked VCSEL in order to improve the quality and frequency of the generated signals. The main advantage of this configuration is that the VCSEL is injection locked using another VCSEL. The use of this Injection-locked VCSEL-by-VCSEL source reduces the cost, complexity and power consumption of the system.
