Abstract

A high-input dynamic range and selectivity stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS)-based microwave photonic filter (MPF) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. By utilizing a pump-splitting dual-stage scheme to mitigate the gain saturation, an input dynamic range of >40dB and a selectivity of >49dB are achieved simultaneously for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. The bandwidth is reconfigurable from 50 MHz to 200 MHz by tailoring the Brillouin pump precisely. During the bandwidth turning, the passband ripple is maintained <1.3dB, and the 20-dB shape factor is 1.2 for the 200-MHz case. The superior performance makes the proposed SBS-MPF one of the best candidates for microwave photonics applications.
