WUHAN, China (September 11, 2014) - Wuhan Optoelectronics Forum No. 85 was successfully held in Auditorium A101 at Wuhan National Laboratory for Optoelectronics (WNLO) in the morning of September 11.
Microwave system capable of high frequency, broadband, large dynamic range and wide coverange is high demanded by the remote sensing, deep-space exploration and electronic countermeasures etc. These pose chanllanges on the generation, distribution, control and processing of the microwave signals in conventional microwave systems. Taking the advantages of the huge avaliable bandwidthe and ultra-high frequency, microwave photonic is one promising candidate as it provides unprecedental benefits in generation, distribution, control and process of the photonic generated microwave signals .This report presents the basic concept, history and potential of microwave photonics, including the latest progresses in dynamic range, convertion efficiency and the phase noise as well as the progresses in fields of applications such as coherent atenna array, analog signal processing and optical clock.
Yi Dong received the PH.D degree in photo-electronic engineering from Beijing Institute of Technology, China, in 1996. He joined Tsinghua University as a post-doctor from 1996 to 1998, and as a lecturer from 1999 to 2000, and as an Associate Professor from 2000 to 2002. From 2002 to 2006, he worked as a research scientist with the lightwave department of I2R, Singapore. In 2006, he joined Shanghai Jiao Tong University as an Associate Professor, and became a Professor in 2008. He is the vice-director of the State Key Laboratory of Advanced Optical Communication Systems and Networks. His research interests are microwave photonics, Analog Optical Signal Processing (AOSP) and optoelectronic measurement. He has published ~100 peering journals and international conferences papers.
