The implementation of sampled optical delay lines for RF signals by means of heterogeneous MCFs is addressed as a generic building block and discussion is then centered on several selected applications including filtering, optical beamforming, and arbitrary waveform generation.Reserva de todos los derechosMicrowave photonics (MWP)Multicore fibers (MCFs)Photonics generationMicrowave photonic (MWP) filteringOptical beamformingTEORIA DE LA SEÑAL Y COMUNICACIONESArtículo10.1109/JPHOT.2012.2199101Abierto
