      In this journal at Fig. 3 and at Fig. 4 Low Pass Bessel filter is used. I have seen similar simulation diagrams, where, after a photodetector a low pass filter is used to filter out the electrical signal.

      But why is it necessary to use a low pass filter?
      Why not other types of filters?
      Can anyone explain?

      Thanks in advance.

      Dear ZH,
      The filter after used after the pin detector is a lowpass filter because the pin detector is a square low device which makes the spectrum of the desired signal at baseband.
