Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach for generating a linear frequency modulated (LFM) pulse. The generated pulse is characterized by a large bandwidth and frequency linearity . The LFM pulses can be used for a variety of applications such as Synthetic Aperture Radar, Ultra wide band Radar etc. The obtained improvements are obtained by a hybrid optical-RF configuration. The suggested optical setups not only significantly enlarges the bandwidth of the produced chirp beam, but also allows to tune its carrier frequency.
