Abstract

A photonic implementation of the modulated wideband converter (MWC) is described. The highly scalable compressive sensing receiver architecture uses photonic components for analog front-end compression and downconversion, allowing scalable data conversion over an extremely wide instantaneous surveillance bandwidth, limited only by the peak anticipated signal occupancy and application-dependent size, weight, and power constraints.
