Abstract
We introduce a powerful Brillouin selective side-band amplification technique and demonstrate an important application for achieving gain in photonic signal up- and down-conversions in microwave photonic systems, We show that systems employing such a scheme is also automatically immune to the fiber dispersion effect.Keywords
