Abstract

In an avionic environment, the critical parameters for any transmission media are weight, size, performance, reliability and layout flexibility. This paper describes the advantages of using RF fiber optic links as replacements for waveguides and coaxial cable, and describes three developed links that illustrate the potential performance obtainable utilizing fiber optics. These links are a 2.85 to 3.15 GHz link, a 10.5 to 11.5 GHz and a wideband 2 to 12 GHz link.
