ABSTRACT
A novel wide-band RF receiver based on a dual-OFC-based channelization and spectrum stitching technique is proposed and demonstrated experimentally. In the scheme, a dual-OFC-based channelizer is utilized as the front-end to slice the RF signals into multiple channels. In the back-end, through the channel estimation and spectrum stitching, the received signals can be well reconstructed in the digital domain. A proof-of-concept experiment is performed, in which signals with 3 GHz bandwidths are sliced and reconstructed using the proposed receiver with a normalized mean squared error (NMSE) of 7.9×10-3. The performances of the reconstructed signals on pulse compression are also demonstrated to evaluate the potential of the proposed technique in practical applications.
