Abstract

This paper reviews some of the recent efforts in the area of microwave–optical interactions applied to active integrated antennas and arrays. Two optical–microwave techniques and examples of their application are presented. First, antenna remoting via optical means is discussed. Second, optical control of microwave devices in active antenna circuits is demonstrated.
