A novel scheme of microwave photonic generation of binary digitally modulated signals is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which can simultaneously generate 2ASK, 2PSK and 2FSK. By dynamically manipulating an optical frequency comb, different modulation formats can be switched. Moreover, the bit rate and carrier frequency of the generated RF signals can be tuned.
