In this work, the generation of a high pulse rate is investigated by applying optical injection for fast communication systems. An analysis of microstrip optical sampling for generating short, fast pulses using a laser or LED control on a gap discontinuity is achieved. The main objective of this presentation is to accurately model and characterize fast signal propagation on a microstrip line at two different frequencies, before and after the gap discontinuity, taking into consideration the material and optical parameters of the photo‐controlled gap. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
