A photonic approach to generating dual-band linear frequency modulation (LFM) signal is proposed based on optical frequency quadrupling and polarization multiplexing. This is achieved by using an integrated polarization multiplexing dual-parallel Mach-Zehnder modulator to perform frequency quadrupling in two orthogonal polarizations independently. After optical-to-electrical conversion, two LFM signals in different frequency bands can be generated simultaneously. The proposed scheme has a very simple and compact structure. Thanks to the frequency quadrupling technique, high-frequency, and wideband LFM signals can be generated with low speed electrical devices. The central frequency, bandwidth, and temporal duration of the generated LFM signals can be easily adjusted. In the experiment, the generation of dual-band LFM signals in K-band and Ka-band (centered at 20 and 30 GHz, respectively) is demonstrated. Tunability of the central frequency, bandwidth, and time duration is also verified. The proposed signal generator is a promising candidate in dual-band multi-function radar applications.
