ABSTRACT:
Various apparatus and methods for generating a 90° AP optical pulsetrain. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes: (1) a phase-modulated optical signal generator configured to generate a phase-modulated optical signal having a carrier band and sidebands phase-shifted relative thereto by multiples of 90° and (2) an optical filter coupled to the phase-modulated optical signal generator and configured to 180° phase-shift selected ones of the carrier band and sidebands to generate the 90° AP optical pulsetrain.
