摘要
This paper proposes a photonic microwave filter based on wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) of multiple optical carriers and dispersive media. Harmonic suppression is obtained using nonuniform tap spacing to extend the filter free spectral range by a Vernier effect. The experimental results presented are in excellent agreement with theory.
