Abstract

A 60-GHz point-to-multipoint (P-MP) fiber-radio access link with data rate of 156 Mb/s is presented. For a compact system configuration, a small-size 60-GHz transceiver module with planar antennas is developed. A point-to-point (P-P) full-duplex fiber-optic configuration is extended to the scheme with multiple access points (APs) by using a tree coupler and a dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) multiplexer (MUX). The bit error rate (BER) performances of the 60-GHz fiber-radio access link are measured and compared. Furthermore, the effect of the extension to the scheme with multiple APs is evaluated.
