Photonics-assisted joint high-speed communication and high-resolution radar detection system.

A photonics-aided dual-functional system that can simultaneously implement high-speed communication and high-resolution radar detection is proposed. In the proposed system, high-speed orthogonal frequency division multiplexing signals and broadband linear frequency modulated signals are simultaneously realized based on photonic heterodyning. Based on this system, a net rate of 46.55 Gbit/s and radar with a 15 GHz bandwidth in the W-band were achieved.
