The MBC-IQ-Lab is an electronic system able to control I&Q Modulators in a CS-SSB modulation scheme. It is based on the minimization of the beating harmonic of two small dithers. This system allows to maintain harmonic rejection of optical CS-SSB spectrum better than 40dB over tens of hours.

Benefits & Features:

Automatic Bias Controller for IQ modulator

Turn-key and stand alone electronic

Two small dithering signals at two different frequencies

Applications:

RFoF: radio over fiber transmissions

Optical frequency shifters

Brillouin based metrology

Antenna Measurements

Main Specifications:

Dedicated to CS-SSB band modulator

Optical harmonics rejection better than 40 dB

High stability recorded over 72 hours
