Abstract
This paper reviews some of the recent efforts in the area of microwave–optical interactions applied to active integrated antennas and arrays. Two optical–microwave techniques and examples of their application are presented. First, antenna remoting via optical means is discussed. Second, optical control of microwave devices in active antenna circuits is demonstrated.

A direction of arrival estimation method for spatial optical beam-forming network

TL;DR: The observation model of the network is established first, and then a new direction of arrival (DOA) estimation method is proposed that makes use of the amplitude distribution of the fiber array to achieve direction finding.

Optical Control of GaAs MESFET's

TL;DR: In this article, a simple model to estimate the effects of light on the dc and RF properties of MESFET'S is presented, where photoconductive and photovoltaic effects in the active channel and substrate are considered to predict the change in the dc equivalent circuit parameters of the FET.
