Continuously Tunable Chirped Microwave Waveform Generation Using a Tilted Fiber Bragg Grating Written in an Erbium/Ytterbium Codoped Fiber

An optical approach to generating continuously tunable chirped microwave waveforms using a tilted fiber Bragg grating (TFBG) written in an erbium/ytterbium (Er/Yb) codoped fiber is proposed. By pumping the TFBG, the magnitude and group delay responses of the cladding mode resonances are changed, whi...
