A photonic scheme to generate a 4-level frequency hopping (FH) microwave signal is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The frequency of the generated signal can be fast and flexibly switched by shifting the combinations of two binary signals (i.e., 00, 01, 11, 10). Moreover, the carrier frequencies of the signal can be tuned in a large range. In the experiments, 2/4/6/12, 4/6/8/12, and 6/9/12/18 GHz FH signals are generated with the FH speed up to gigahertz.
