Abstract :
The wavelength-division multiplexing of four optical millimetre-wave sources is demonstrated for fibre radio access systems. A modelocked laser, with strictly fixed mode intervals as a result of optical harmonic injection modelocking, is used as the master source for the two-mode injection-locking of Fabry-Perot slave lasers
