Abstract

We introduce an optically controlled microwave phase stabilizer based on polarization interference technique using single semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA). A prototype with a frequency of 10 GHz is experimentally demonstrated. It provides a stable phase drift that can be linearly compensated over 10 km single-mode fiber by controlling the SOA injection current.
