2. Microwave signal generation using optical beating

As we saw in 1 , transporting a microwave signal on an optical carrier usually involves modulating the intensity of the laser beam. This modulation can be "direct" (modulation of the supply current to a laser diode) or "external" (intensity modulation via an external modulator, such as a Mach-Zehnder). Direct modulation is generally confined...
