Resumen
We propose a technique for the generation of broadband optical single sideband modulated signals. The technique is based on optically processing an optical double sideband signal using stimulated Brillouin scattering effect. An unwanted sideband suppression over 40 dB in a broadband range from 50 MHz to 20 GHz is experimentally demonstrated. In addition, we apply the generated optical single side ...

We propose a technique for the generation of broadband optical single sideband modulated signals. The technique is based on optically processing an optical double sideband signal using stimulated Brillouin scattering effect. An unwanted sideband suppression over 40 dB in a broadband range from 50 MHz to 20 GHz is experimentally demonstrated. In addition, we apply the generated optical single sideband signal for the spectral characterization of polarization dependent parameters of optical components. The experimental characterization of the polarization dependent loss and the differential group delay of a phase-shifted fiber Bragg grating is performed in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the technique.
