Abstract

It has been a goal to develop fiber optic link components that offer high performance and environmental robustness. This paper describes the performance of a lithium niobate modulator, laser sources, and detectors when evaluated against the requirements encountered on airborne platforms. It was shown that the complete fiber optic link provided for high dynamic range operation to 18 GHz under the environmental stresses of the application.
