High-frequency signal generators are required in such applications as telecommunications, radar, medical equipment, remote control, probing, radio astronomy, and spectroscopy. One can use an optoelectronic oscillator on a photonic integrated circuit in these applications due to its ease of implementation and low phase noise level. This article considers an optoelectronic oscillator with a phase shifter as a phase modulator implemented in a photonic integrated circuit to simplify the photonic integrated circuit design. The simulation results show that this system can generate microwave signals with a high signal-to-noise ratio (at least 35.27 dB). The side mode suppression ratio was up to 5.94 dB lower than the Mach-Zehnder modulator scheme. This proposed scheme can be used for microwave signal generation in various telecommunication applications and in interrogation tasks.
