A semiconductor photonic integrated circuits (PICs) may perform RF signal processing, including beamspace processing or spatial Fourier Transforms in a semiconductor PIC. An RF imaging system including the semiconductor processing PIC may include an antenna array that upconverts RF signals to optical signals using electro-optic modulators, such as lithium niobate modulators. Simultaneous processing (beamforming) of multiple RF signals utilizing the semiconductor processing PIC may be performed.
