A photonic microwave phase shifter exploiting vector modulation has been constructed. The device is capable of shifting an arbitrary input signal through greater than 2π phase shift across 2-18 GHz. To illustrate applications of the device, the basic phase shifter was then incorporated into frequency translation and frequency discrimination architectures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
