“…Figure 5 shows the configuration of the two-mode locking of a FP LD to generate 60-GHz mm-wave carrier. The 1st upper and lower sidemodes, obtained by applying MZM with 30-GHz radio frequency (RF) signal to modulate the CW output from a DFB LD are used to lock the two modes of the FP LD, whose mode interval is 60-GHz (Ogusu et al, 2003). The main drawback of optical self-heterodyning is the strong influence of laser phase noise and optical frequency variation on the purity and stability of the generated mm-wave signal.…”

“…Therefore, an effective method is to generate the millimeter-wave signals by optical heterodyne detection of twowave optical signal by PD in the wireless base station. Various methods have been proposed [1][2][3][4]. At the wireless terminal, the received millimeter-wave signal is mixed with the output of the millimeter-wave local oscillator and the signal is downconverted to the low-frequency IF band.…”

SUMMARYIn order to economically realize a Gbit/s class downlink using 60-GHz millimeter waves, the authors have previously proposed an optical/electrical two-step heterodyne system, based on the Radio-On-Fiber (ROF) transmission technique, in which millimeter-wave filters at the wireless base station and a millimeter-wave local oscillator at the wireless terminal are unnecessary. In this paper, for four types of three-wave/four-wave optical transmission method realizing the proposed scheme, the CNR of the IF signals obtained at the wireless terminal is analyzed and an optimization method is found for optical power distribution to each of multiple wavelength optical signals. The analytical results are compared to show that the scheme for generating three-wave millimeter-wave signals from four-wave optical signals has excellent characteristics for application to either a feed or a nonfeed base station. At the wireless terminal, deterioration can be reduced to about 6.5 dB and about 4.8 dB in comparison with the conventional scheme using a millimeter-wave local oscillator. Further, the output from a single optical source is optically modulated with two-wave 30-GHz-band signals, and then the above optical transmission system generating the four optical signals is used for generation of the 1.0 Gbit/s-BPSK millimeterwave/IF signal and for demodulation by synchronous detection. It is demonstrated that a BER of less than 10 -9 can be obtained for a PD input optical power of -11 dBm even in 10-km SMF transmission.

“…Among the optical techniques for mm-wave generation published by now, such as optical heterodyning of two laser beams or two laser modes [1][2][3][4][5][6], self-heterodyning of side modes generated by external modulation [7][8][9][10][11][12], optoelectronic mixing [13,14] and optical frequency multiplication (OFM) [15][16][17], OFM based on harmonic generation from low-frequency microwave is a promising and cost-effective technique because it does not need any mm-wave oscillator, frequency multiplier or modulator at CS and BS and mm-wave sub-carrier delivered over the fiber link.…”

This paper presents an overview on new progresses of millimeter wave (mm-wave) radio-overfiber (RoF) system based on mm-wave generation by optical frequency multiplication (OFM), including generation of high-order optical side modes by optical modulation using dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DD-MZM) and enhancement of high-order optical side mode induced by selective amplification due to stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). The paper describes OFM by using DD-MZM in principle and verifies it in an experimental bidirectional 40 GHz RoF system. SBS amplification enhances the generated information-bearing mm-wave in downlink and also helps in producing a pure reference mm-wave for radio frequency-intermediate frequency (RF-IF) down-conversion in uplink. These efforts pushed the OFM technology of mm-RoF systems to achieve more and more feasibility and costeffectiveness.
