System and method for generating a synchronisation control signal

摘要

The system has a high-frequency signal input (15) for the high-frequency signal to an input unit (1) is configured for inputting an optical signal with a pulsed repetition rate. An electro-optical amplitude modulator (9) and an optical input (7) are provided, where a voltage input (13) is connected to the phase element of the amplitude modulator. A regulator input and a regulator output are provided for outputting a synchronization control signal. A phase shift mixer (35) is provided, which has a high frequency input (37), a local oscillator input (33) and an output (39). Independent claims are included for the following: (1) an optical synchronization unit for synchronizing a pulsed optical signal having a high-frequency signal; and (2) a method for generating a synchronization control signal to synchronize a high-frequency signal with high frequency and pulsed optical signal.
