Photonic analog to digital conversion offers promise to overcome the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and sample rate trade-off in conventional analog to digital converters (ADCs), critical for modern digital communications and signal analysis. We propose using phase-stable dual frequency combs with a fixed frequency spacing offset to downconvert spectral slices of a broadband signal and enable high resolution parallel digitization. To prove the concept of our proposed method, we demonstrate the detection of a 10-GHz subcarrier modulated (SCM) signal using 500-MHz bandwidth ADCs by optically converting the SCM signal to ten 1-GHz bandwidth signals that can be processed in parallel for full signal detection and reconstruction. Using sinusoidal wave based standard ADC testing, we demonstrate a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of >45dB and signal-to-noise-and-distortion (SINAD) of >20dB, only limited by the receiver front-end design. Our experimental investigation reveals that this SINAD limitation can be overcome by improved receiver design, promising high resolution ADC for broadband signals.

In a growing number of applications, there is a need to digitize signals whose spectral characteristics are challenging for traditional Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs). Examples, among others, include systems where the ADC must acquire at once a
very wide but sparsely and dynamically occupied bandwidth supporting diverse services, as well as systems where the signal of interest is subject to strong narrowband co-channel interference. In such scenarios, the resolution requirements can be prohibitively high. As an alternative, the recently proposed modulo-ADC architecture can in principle require dramatically fewer bits in the conversation to obtain the target fidelity, but requires that information about the spectrum be known and explicitly taken into account by the analog and digital processing in the converter, which is frequently impractical. To address this limitation, we develop a blind version of the architecture that requires no such knowledge in the converter, without sacrificing performance. In particular, it features an automatic modulo-level adjustment and a fully adaptive modulo unwrapping mechanism, allowing it to asymptotically match the characteristics of the unknown input signal. In addition to detailed analysis, simulations demonstrate the attractive performance characteristics in representative settings.
Digital-to-analog converters (DAC) are indispensable functional units in signal processing instrumentation and wide-band telecommunication links for both civil and military applications. Since photonic systems are capable of high data throughput and
low latency, an increasingly found system limitation stems from the required domain-crossing such as digital-to-analog, and electronic-to-optical. A photonic DAC implementation, in contrast, enables a seamless signal conversion with respect to both energy efficiency and short signal delay, often require bulky discrete optical components and electric-optic transformation hence introducing inefficiencies. Here, we introduce a novel coherent parallel photonic DAC concept along with an experimental demonstration capable of performing this digital-to-analog conversion without optic-electric-optic domain crossing. This design hence guarantees a linear intensity weighting among bits operating at high sampling rates, yet at a reduced footprint and power consumption compared to other photonic alternatives. Importantly, this photonic DAC could create seamless interfaces of next-generation data processing hardware for data-centers, task-specific compute accelerators such as neuromorphic engines, and network edge processing applications.
We consider the problem of mapping digital data encoded on a quantum register to analog amplitudes in parallel. It is shown to be unlikely that a fully unitary polynomial-time quantum algorithm exists for this problem; NP becomes a subset of BQP if i
t exists. In the practical point of view, we propose a nonunitary linear-time algorithm using quantum decoherence. It tacitly uses an exponentially large physical resource, which is typically a huge number of identical molecules. Quantumness of correlation appearing in the process of the algorithm is also discussed.
High-speed high-resolution Analog-to-Digital Conversion is the key part for waveform digitization in physics experiments and many other domains. This paper presents a new fully digital correction of mismatch errors among the channels in Time Interlea
ved Analog-to-Digital Converter (TIADC) systems. We focus on correction with wide-band input signal, which means that we can correct the mismatch errors for any frequency point in a broad band with only one set of filter coefficients. Studies were also made to show how to apply the correction algorithm beyond the base band, i.e. other Nyquist zones in the under-sampling situation. Structure of the correction algorithm is presented in this paper, as well as simulation results. To evaluate the correction performance, we actually conducted a series of tests with two TIADC systems. The results indicate that the performance of both two TIADC systems can be greatly improved by correction, and the Effective Number Of Bits (ENOB) is successfully improved to be better than 9.5 bits and 5.5 bits for an input signal up to the bandwidth (-3dB) range in the 1.6-Gsps 14-bit and the 10-Gsps 8-bit TIADC systems, respectively. Tests were also conducted for input signal frequencies in the second Nyquist zone, which shows that the correction algorithms also work well as expected.
We demonstrate fiber mode-locked dual frequency comb spectroscopy for broadband, high resolution measurements in a rapid compression machine (RCM). We apply an apodization technique to improve the short-term signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR), which enables
broadband spectroscopy at combustion-relevant timescales. We measure the absorption on 24345 individual wavelength elements (comb teeth) between 5967 and 6133 cm-1 at 704 microsecond time resolution during a 12-ms compression of a CH4-N2 mixture. We discuss the effect of the apodization technique on the absorption spectra, and apply an identical effect to the spectral model during fitting to recover the mixture temperature. The fitted temperature is compared against an adiabatic model, and found to be in good agreement with expected trends. This work demonstrates the potential of DCS to be used as an in situ diagnostic tool for broadband, high resolution, measurements in engine-like environments.
