  • Patent number: 10224895
    Abstract: A transmission line transformer having a time delay network having a signal terminal and a pair of output terminals connected to the signal terminal through a corresponding one of a pair of time delay elements, the delay line elements having different time delays. A pair of transmission lines, each one having a pair of electrically coupled elements. A first one of the elements in one of the transmission lines has a first end connected to one of the pair of output terminals. A second one of the elements in such one of the transmission lines has a second end connected to a second end of one of the pair of elements in the other one of the transmission lines. The first one of the pair of elements in the other one of the pair of transmission lines is coupled to a second one of the pair of output terminals.

  • Patent number: 7657189
    Abstract: A system having a first optical modulator operates in a non-linear region thereof and fed by: an input radio frequency signal; and, a first optical frequency signal having a wavelength ?2. A second optical modulator operates in a linear region thereof and fed by: a fractional portion of the input radio frequency signal phase shifted relative to the input radio frequency signal by n? radians where n is an odd integer; and a second different optical frequency signal wavelength ?1. A first photodiode is fed by an output of the first optical modulator. A second photodiode is fed by an output of the second optical modulator and a fractional portion of an output of the first optical modulator. An amplifier is fed by the second photodiode. A subtractor is fed by the amplifier and the first photodiode.
