We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel and practical microwave photonic system that is capable of executing cascaded signal processing functions comprising a microwave photonic bandpass filter and a phase shifter, while providing separate and independent control for each function. The experimental results demonstrate a single bandpass microwave photonic filter with a 3-dB bandwidth of 15 MHz and an out-of-band ratio of over 40 dB, together with a simultaneous RF phase tuning control of 0-215° with less than ± 3 dB filter shape variance.
