Different from the commonly used method that switches the bias point of the optical modulator in the RD between two quadrature transmission points to mix the signal to be sampled and the PRBS, this method employs a PRBS with lower amplitude to low bias the optical modulator so that the impact of non-ideal PRBS on microwave photonic RDs can be greatly reduced by compressing the amplitude of non-ideal parts of the PRBS.
