The principle of OENF is introduced and analysis of the OENF system is presented. Two electric filters are optimized to be RBW filters for high and medium spectral resolution applications. Both simulations and experiments are conducted to verify the OENF principle and the results show that the power uncertainty is less than 1.2% and the spectral resolution can reach 6 MHz. Then, a real-time wavelength calibration system consisting of a HCN gas cell and Fabry\u2013P\u00e9rot etalon is proposed to guarantee a wavelength accuracy of \u00b10.4 pm in the C-band and to reduce the influence of phase noise and nonlinear velocity of the LO sweep. Finally, OSA experiments on actual spectra of various optical sensors are conducted using the OENF system. These experimental results indicate that OENF system has an excellent capacity for the analysis of fine spectrum structures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s17020348","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,15]],"date-time":"2017-02-15T10:09:07Z","timestamp":1487153347000},"page":"348","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["An Optoelectronic Equivalent Narrowband Filter for High Resolution Optical Spectrum Analysis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2260-1272","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kunpeng","family":"Feng","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiwen","family":"Cui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hong","family":"Dang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Weidong","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xun","family":"Sun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xuelin","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"},{"name":"Shanghai Micro Electronics Equipment Co., Ltd., Shanghai 201203, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiubin","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Ultra-Precision Optoelectronic Instrument, Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin 150080, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,2,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"736","DOI":"10.3390\/s16050736","article-title":"Design and Implementation of a Novel Compatible Encoding Scheme in the Time Domain for Image Sensor Communication","volume":"16","author":"Trang","year":"2016","journal-title":"Sensors"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"855","DOI":"10.1109\/LPT.2005.843946","article-title":"Very high resolution optical spectrometry by stimulated Brillouin scattering","volume":"17","author":"Pelayo","year":"2005","journal-title":"IEEE Photonics Technol.
