Abstract

A photonic instantaneous microwave frequency measurement scheme based on frequency-to-time mapping and channelization is proposed. An unknown signal is divided into four channels and mixed with a broadband linear frequency-modulated signal. The frequency information is converted to the time domain, and the frequency measurement range has been expanded due to channelization. A simulation system has been constructed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. A proof-of-concept experimental result shows that the frequency measurement errors can be kept in 20 MHz with a 10 MHz resolution, and the frequency measurement range is 1 GHz to 39 GHz.
