## Abstract A continuously tunable microwave photonic notch filter is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. This filter is based on the differential group delay generated by a high‐birefringence linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating. The tunability is realized by applying gradient tension to the

✦ Synopsis
An optical microwave filter architecture which can be continuously tuned is proposed and demonstrated. The architecture is based on a nematic liquid crystal spatial light modulator in parallel configuration and has the potential to control a large number of taps. Proof-of concept experimental results are provided.

## Abstract A continuously tunable incoherent microwave photonic filter employing a tunable Mach‐Zehnder interferometer (MZI) as the slicing filter is studied. By incorporating the optical variable delay line (OVDL), the frequency spacing of the MZI can be tuned continuously, which in turn makes th
An integrated photonic microwave reconfigurable filter was proposed and realized incorporating a tunable polymeric ring resonator. Its passband could be shaped electrically by shifting the resonant peaks of the resonator via the thermo-optic effect. As for the achieved performance, the center freque
A novel tunable and reconfigurable microwave photonic filter based on two cascaded modulators and a dispersive medium is proposed, theoretically discussed and experimentally demonstrated. A singlewavelength LD and a modulator (either a Mach-Zehnder modulator or a phase modulator which can avoid the
