Abstract

An integrated-optic analog vector multiplier can be used to achieve RF beam steering and nulling of a phased array antenna. We have characterized such a device, consisting of two sets of electrooptic grating modulators, using simulated antenna signals. Accurate linear four-quadrant multiplication can be obtained.
