“…Many fiber-wireless links in the W-band have been proposed and experimentally demonstrated recently, and they can attain large capacity and high performance by adopting modulation format with high spectral efficiency (SE) and digital signal processing (DSP) with coherent detection [7]- [13]. Although in heterodyne detection the minimum bandwidth requirement of the receiver F. Li is with the Hunan University, Changsha, China, with ZTE USA, Morristown, NJ 07960 USA, and also with Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA 30332 USA (e-mail: fanli0809@gmail.com).…”
