where y( jω) is the control symbolic conductivity, which is (for the typical RF
oscillator) the ratio of the symbolic load conductivity y 1 to the feedback coefficient
k fb ; ω ¼ 2πf, jω is the symbolic operator of differentiation
6 [14]. Having introduced
the time constant T EF and the natural frequency f 0e for the RF filter F (Fig. 3.2c), we
can write for the symbolic load conductance y 1 of the A amplifier the following
expression:

to the differentiation operator in the time domain d/dt and ( jω)

have the differential nonlinear equation of the second order.
Now we take into consideration that in our structural diagram the feedback
coefficient k fb is the transfer function of RF FODL, i.e., k fb ¼ K FODL ¼ U PD /U MZ .
For simplicity, we assume that the module of the RF FODL transfer function is
constant and equal to K 0FODL , and then K 0FODL ¼ E

current, which is 1, then u F % u MZ . Having considered jω as the differentiation
operator d/dt, we write the OEO equation in the operator:

As it was shown earlier, at the choice of the operating point, the function of AC
component of the MZ output emission power versus the u MZ voltage or the function
of AC component of FODL output voltage u PD ¼ f(u MZ ) is close to linear function, if
the MZ modulator operates “in quadrature” at small amplitude of electric voltage in
its electrical input. Figure 3.15 shows functions of the DC component of the optical
emission and the AC component of the fundamental harmonic in the MZ output.
Numbers “1” and “2” mark the values at constant relative DC bias voltage in the
“quadrature” and “non-quadrature” modes. They are equal relatively 0.5 and 1.0 and
corresponds in Fig. 3.15 to the phase φ 0MZ ¼
πU 0MZ
U 0MZπ
¼ π=2 and π, relatively.
The MZ function becomes nonlinear, for instance, at large oscillation amplitude
in the MZ input at constant bias equaled to “π.”
