We report of a silicon photonics (SiP) flat-top bandpass microwave photonic (MWP) filter with large out-of-band power rejection (OBPR) of up to more than 40 dB and exhibiting central frequency tuna…
Soon after its introduction in the communications domain, the novel concept of multiple input–multiple output (MIMO) has been making its way also into the radar world. A new generation of multist…
Currently, due to the 6G revolution, applications ranging from communication to sensing are experiencing an increasing and urgent need of software-defined ultra-wideband (UWB) and tunable radio fre…
We report on the characterization of a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) for the generation of a RF carrier in the millimeter-wave band up to the sub-THz region. The circuit is implemented in silic…
This work reports the first realization of a combined radar&lidar system based on silicon-on-insulator photonic integrated circuit (PIC). The software-defined architecture comprises a frequency-fle…
Thermally controlled silicon photonics microwave phase shifters suffer from slow reconfiguration time that practically limits their application fields. A microwave photonics phase shifter exploitin…
In the last decades, photonic technologies have been increasingly proposed for microwave and millimeter-wave applications, opening the way to the development of a new field of research known as Mic…
