Abstract

A precisely tunable true time delay line (TTDL) based on lithium niobate on insulator waveguide grating is proposed. Utilizing the electro-optic effect of lithium niobate, active tuning of reflected wavelength and time delay can be realized. The numerical simulation results show that, with the optimized grating structure and flexible electrode distribution, wide tuning range and high tuning accuracy of time delay can be achieved by simply controlling the charging position of the electrodes. This TTDL is applied to a tunable bandpass microwave photonic filter (TBMPF), which using PM-IM conversion to suppressed dc signal to achieve bandpass. In the TBMPF, the TTDL plays the role of introducing the dispersion for PM-IM conversion, time delay between the taps and tuning of central frequency. This TTDL can reduce the system complexity and cost of microwave photonic filter.
