A novel digital coherent receiver for wireless signal

We propose and characterize a promising digital coherent receiver for analog photonic link architecture based on a novel I/Q-demodulation module. Using the proposed scheme, signal demodulation of QPSK modulated RF carrier is experimentally demonstrated.
