Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title>ABSTRACT</title> <p>A novel optically controlled microwave phase stabilizing method based on semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) is presented and the theoretical fundamentals of the design are explained. A prototype with a frequency of 10 GHz is experimentally demonstrated. It provides a stable phase drift that can be linearly compensated over 10 km single‐mode fiber with a single sideband phase noise below −100 dBc/Hz at an offset of 10 kHz by tuning the SOA injection current. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
