Abstract
We propose an all-optical method of achieving suppression of local-osc illator (LO) RIN, image rejection, and efficient use of signal and LO power for a heterodyne receiver. Hence, only one photodetector is need ed compared to four in the conventional optical-electrical image rejec tion receiver.
