Microcombs are powerful tools as sources of multiple wavelength channels for photonic RF signal processing. They offer a compact device footprint, large numbers of wavelengths, and wide Nyquist bands. Here, we review recent progress on microcomb-based photonic RF signal processors, including true time delays, reconfigurable filters, Hilbert transformers, differentiators, and channelizers. The strong potential of optical micro-combs for RF photonics applications in terms of functions and integrability is also discussed.
