Abstract

A frequency-reconfigurable radio-over-fiber transmitter is designed and demonstrated with an optical frequency comb source for millimeter-wave and terahertz signal transmission over a fiber-wireless hybrid link. Optical-to-radio and radio-to-optical converters with a high-speed photomixer and frequency-heterodyne technique successfully perform coherent quadrature-phase-shift-keying signal generation and reception in the optical domain at 90 GHz and 300 GHz. A digital radio receiver also receives and demodulates the transmitted QPSK signal at 300 GHz with the same bit error rate behavior as in an optical link.
