“…The OEO is similar to the optoelectronic feedback circuits demonstrated by Neyer and Voges [6] in 1982, Nakazawa et al [7] in 1984, and later by Lewis [8] in 1992. Incidentally an OEO owes its origin to the delay-line oscillators of seventies.…”

The Optoelectronic Oscillator (OEO) was first demonstrated in 1996 as a low phase noise RF source. Low phase noise RF sources have uses for multiple applications, ranging from analog to digital converters to radar to metrology. In the past sixteen years, the OEO has been shown to be useful for other signal processing applications. This paper will provide a background of the OEO's principles of operation, as well as multiple examples of signal processing applications where the OEO can be used. The OEO can be applied to both analog and digital problems, providing new techniques to solve these challenges.

“…In 1982, Park and Garside modified Damen's method to deliver a picosecond pulse train at repetition rates ranging from 10 to 100 MHz (11). Subsequently, by using amplitude and frequency modulation (AM and FM) types, Nakazawa et al demonstrated an optoelectronic self-oscillatory circuit to obtain a stable oscillation in 1984 (12), and an equivalent circuit with the following differential-difference equation was also proposed to investigate the oscillation waveform X(t) and amplitude, as shown in Figure 3:…”

Without the need of any clock source, an optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) enables to simultaneously generate a high‐repetition‐rate optical clock/pulse train with low jitter and a microwave clock with high spectral purity, and it can be employed to further perform signal processing including data generation, pulse shaping, and clock recovery. Therefore, it becomes the center of attention in the microwave photonic technical area. Numerous techniques have been proposed to reduce the single‐sideband (SSB) phase noise and to improve the frequency stability of the OEO. In this article, a historical review of OEOs including different constructing methods and functionalities is introduced. Subsequently, a Mach–Zehnder modulator (MZM)‐based OEO at 40 GHz is focused to implement a synthesizer‐free 40 Gbit/s return‐to‐zero binary phase‐shifted‐keying (RZ‐BPSK) data generator. As a result, the 40 GHz microwave clock with a Q ‐factor of up to 2 × 10 8 is observed, and its SSB phase noise can be suppressed to −120 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz frequency offset. Moreover, its spectral quality is almost independent of the intraloop fiber‐induced radio‐frequency (RF) power fading. In addition, the delivered optical RZ carrier with a pulse on/off extinction ratio (ER) of 7.7 dB, a pulse width of 10.5 ps, and a timing jitter of 150 fs is particularly suitable for 40 Gbit/s RZ‐BPSK data transmission. At a requested bit error rate (BER) of 10 −9 , a back‐to‐back receiving power sensitivity of −16.3 dBm is observed, which indicates a power penalty of 4 dB after 25 km single‐mode‐fiber (SMF) transmission.
