Abstract:
A method and apparatus for signal processing by light waveform shaping are provided to process an uplink signal generated by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and/or process a downlink signal to be transmitted to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The method includes adjusting the waveform of the uplink signal and/or the waveform of the downlink signal with a light waveform shaping module so that, even if the DAC and/or ADC has a low sampling rate and a narrow bandwidth, a high-frequency signal portion of the uplink signal and/or a high-frequency signal portion of the downlink signal can be preserved.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for signal processing by light waveform shaping, wherein the method is used to process an uplink signal generated by a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) or process a downlink signal to be transmitted to an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), the method comprising the step of: adjusting a waveform of the uplink signal by an optical modulation module of a light waveform shaping module, in order for the optical modulation module to turn the uplink signal into a light pulse signal and thereby prevent a high-frequency image signal portion of the uplink signal from being suppressed; or adjusting a waveform of the downlink signal by an optical grating of the light waveform shaping module, in order for the optical grating to suppress code interference of the downlink signal, thereby eliminating a low-pass effect and consequently preserving aliasing between a high-frequency signal portion and a low-frequency signal portion of the downlink signal.
