摘要

In this paper, the theory model of phase noise for microwave photonic link is derived and verified by experiments first, considering both types of flicker and white noises. In order to decrease the phase noise of link, low-phase noise amplifier and high-linear photodiode is applied in microwave photonic link. Based on this model, the effect of phase noise of microwave photonic link on the OEO is also analyzed and we found the lower-phase noise microwave photonic link results in better-characteristics OEO.
