Abstract

An optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) under the influence of a weak interference has been investigated. The system equation of the OEO under the influence of interference has been derived. A novel technique for calculating the lock range of the oscillator using the harmonic balance method in presence of interference has been demonstrated. Theoretical analysis coupled with experimental results has been presented.
