Abstract

The optical beam forming of phased array antennas is a very promising technique because of the advantages of the fibre optic signal transmission and the optical control of microwave monolithic integrated circuits (MMICs). In this paper a new approach is presented for the optical generation of millimetre waves (MMW) with the intention to feed the phased array antennas in radar systems. In this approach an optically transmitted subharmonic reference signal is used to stabilise a voltage controlled harmonic oscillator providing the millimetre wave signal. This method provides a simple and inexpensive new approach.
