RADC-TR-88-92, FINAL TECHNICAL REPORT: IMPEDANCE MATCHING FOR HIGH SPEED OPTICAL COMMUNICATION (JUN-1988) [AD-A200 753]

RADC-TR-88-92, FINAL TECHNICAL REPORT: IMPEDANCE MATCHING FOR HIGH SPEED OPTICAL COMMUNICATION (JUN-1988) [AD-A200 753]., This technical report details several methods of providing low Standing Wave Ratio (SWR), low loss, broadband microwave impedance matching for direct modulation of a laser diode. The report addresses group delay performance of matching netw-rks and provides several Computer-Aided-Designs (CAD) solutions to impedance matching of the laser diodes in both active and passive systems.
