Reconfigurable Pass-band Microwave Photonic Filter Using Frequency Combs and Stimulated Brillouin Scattering

A reconfigurable pass-band microwave photonics filter with a 3-dB bandwidth from 34.5 MHz to 306.8 MHz and a tuning range of 3 ~ 20 GHz is demonstrated based on frequency combs and stimulated Brillouin scattering.
