Abstract :
We will present the design and characterisation of a transversal microwave filter as a signal processor for 40 Gbits/s optical receivers. The filter was implemented using monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) technology. The main features are the electrical response tuning facility and signal gain. The work reports, for the first time the response in time domain of the packaged filter and also the adaptive control structure.
