项目摘要

The proposed RTI grant will support the purchase of a new Optical Vector Analyzer (OVA) to enable the continuation of our research activities that have been supported by an old Optical Vector Analyzer failed recently. Specifically, three NSERC research programs will be supported: 1) NSERC Discovery grant program (2012-2017) in which integrated microwave photonic signal processors for wideband microwave signal processing are being developed, 2) NSERC CREATE program to support graduate student training in Silicon Electronic-Photonic Integrated Circuits (2012-2018), and 3) NSERC Strategic project grant program (two grants, 2013-2017 and 2016-2019) in which integrated microwave photonics circuits for ultra-fast signal processing and for 5G communications are being studied and developed. An OVA is a key instrument to perform high resolution spectrum measurements, which is essential and extremely important for optical component test and characterization. Our old OVA purchased eight years ago has failed recently and it could not be repaired since the model is obsolete and discontinued. We hereby request for funding to purchase a new OVA to enable us to continue our research activities in integrated microwave photonics, where high-resolution optical spectrum measurements and analysis are highly needed.

拟议的RTI赠款将支持购买新的光学矢量分析仪（OVA），以使我们的研究活动继续持续，这些研究活动被旧的光学矢量分析仪最近失败了。 Specifically, three NSERC research programs will be supported: 1) NSERC Discovery grant program (2012-2017) in which integrated microwave photonic signal processors for wideband microwave signal processing are being developed, 2) NSERC CREATE program to support graduate student training in Silicon Electronic-Photonic Integrated Circuits (2012-2018), and 3) NSERC Strategic project grant program (two grants, 2013-2017 and 2016 - 2019年）研究和开发了用于超快速信号处理和5G通信的集成微波光子电路。 OVA是执行高分辨率测量值的关键工具，这对于光学组件测试和表征至关重要，非常重要。我们八年前购买的旧OVA最近失败了，由于模型已过时和停用，因此无法修复。我们特此要求资金购买新的OVA，以使我们能够继续进行集成的微波光子学研究活动，在该活动中，高分辨率光谱测量和分析非常需要。
