abstract = {This article presents a concept of a long pulse envelope detector (ED) with a high sensitivity value based on Microwave Photonics (MWP). The process of envelope detecting of RF signals is achieved by the translation of the RF spectrum to the optical spectrum range followed by optical filtering to cut the lower sideband and the carrier, finally beating the remaining upper sideband into a low-speed photodetector (LSPD). The LSPD amplified by transimpedance gain. This approach depends only on the RF passing band of the phase modulator (PM) and the optical filter transfer function. This concept is experimentally demonstrated reaching envelope detector tangential signal sensitivity (TSS) values around -40 dBm for RF input frequency range from 10 GHz to 20 GHz. The proposed architecture does not use any optical or video signal amplifier. The implementation of this approach is simple, employs few components, and Commercial off-the-Shelf (COTS).},

abstract = {Electronic warfare was of great importance mainly in the second world war. Radar was one of the greatest inventions in the area at that time, reinventing the way war was viewed until then. Today, modern combat aircraft have sophisticated warfare systems, one of which is known as the Radar Warning Receiver (RWR), responsible for alert pilots to possible radar detection and guiding the direction in which it is being radiated. Technological the interaction of the Microwave and optoelectronics area, thus emerging an area known as Microwave Photonics (MWP). This article presents a photonic link to replace the copper cables used by RWR systems, thus applying photonic technology in order to improve performance and benefit from the intrinsic characteristics that optical fiber offers to the system, offering a totally passive remote system, where only one phase modulator is connected to the RWR antenna.},
