El objetivo principal del presente documento es aplicar las fibras ópticas multinúcleo (MCFs) al campo de la fotónica de microondas (MWP). En primer lugar, se caracterizan las MCFs y se realiza un estudio de la diafonía ...

[EN] In this paper we provide the theoretical and experimental evaluation of fiber bending and twisting effects on the group delay performance of a homogeneous 7-core fiber. We have experimentally evaluated the differential ...

We present a novel procedure for designing a sampled discrete true-time delay line (TTDL) for Microwave Photonics applications based on a heterogeneous MCF. Both simple step-index (SI) and trench-assisted SI profiles are ...

[EN] We present a novel double-clad step-index few-mode fiber that operates as a five-sampled tunable true-time delay line. The unique feature of this design lies in its particular modal chromatic dispersion behavior, which ...

[EN] Space-division multiplexing fibers emerged as a promising solution to overcome the imminent capacity crunch of conventional singlemode fiber networks. Despite these fibers were initially conceived as distribution media ...

[EN] We report, for the first time to our knowledge. distributed radiofrequency signal processing built upon true time delay operation on a step-index few-mode fiber. Two 3-sample configurations with different time delay ...

[EN] We implement "fiber-distributed signal processing" in the context of fiber-wireless communications by using different multicore fibers, providing both radio access distribution and microwave photonics signal processing ...

[EN] We theoretically and experimentally compare the performance of two fully tunable phase shifter structures based on semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) by means of several figures of merit common to microwave photonic ...

[EN] A fully tunable microwave photonic phase shifter involving a single semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is proposed and demonstrated. 360° microwave phase shift has been achieved by tuning the carrier wavelength and ...

This paper reports the work carried by ITEAM researchers on novel concepts in the field of Microwave Photonics (MWP). It includes activities related to the general modelling of MWP systems, the use of novel multicore ...
