    Abstract

    A passband frequency-electable microwave photonic multiband bandpass filter based on a cascaded fiber Sagnac loop is presented and experimentally demonstrated. A broadband light is sliced by the cascaded fiber Sagnac loop, which serves as a spectrum slicer. After broadband light passes through the spectrum slicer, the sliced broadband light will have the varied periodical spectral characteristics that will cause a transmitted spectral distribution with uniform or multiple periods, then will be modulated by an optical phase modulator and delayed by a dispersive medium. Therefore, a frequency-band-selectable microwave photonic multiband bandpass filter with a suppressed baseband is achieved that can be switched between the single-passband, dual-passband, and triple-passband state. The presented filter exhibits a maximal out-of-band rejection ratio of about 30 dB.
