Abstract
This paper reviews recent advances in 1.55-mum photonic systems for measure ment and sensors covering the frequency range from microwaves to millimeter waves. We first deal with the basic technologies for photonic measurement, i.e., generation, transmission, and detection of high-frequency signals, a nd then discuss recent practical applications, including high-speed integra ted-circuit probers, sampling oscilloscopes, network analyzers, and some fr ee-space sensing systems.
