Description
Summary:We present a brief review of recent accomplishments in the field of Microwave Photonics (MWP). Recent research across a broad range of MWP applications is summarized, including photonic generation of microwave, millimeter, and Terahertz waves; broadband optical beamforming for phased array antennas; tunable, reconfigurable, and adaptive microwave photonic filtering, as well as the application of slow and fast light effects to the implementation of tunable microwave phase shifting and true time delay operations. © 2011 IEEE.
