Paper abstract: Small-sized, ultra-low phase noise photonic microwave oscillators at 10, 20, 30, and 40 GHz are demonstrated using electro-optical frequency division. At 40 GHz, a record-low, to our knowledge, phase noise of −153dBc/Hz is achieved (10 kHz offset).

hQphotonics President and cofounder, Dr. Jiang Li, gave a 30-minute invited talk on Field-deployable, ultra-low phase noise photonic microwave oscillators at the 2022 International Topical Meeting on Microwave Photonics (2022 MWP): https://attend.ieee.org/mwp-2022/full-programme/
Invited Paper Abstract (#TU2.1, 2022 MWP): In this paper, compact, ultra-low phase noise (ULPN) photonic microwave oscillators at 10, 20, 30 and 40 GHz based on electro-optical frequency division (eOFD) are described. At 40 GHz a record-low phase noise of -153 dBc/Hz is achieved (10 kHz offset, 40 GHz carrier). The oscillators use typically 50W wall-plug power from a single 12V supply.
