Abstract :
We report photonic radio-frequency arbitrary waveform generation in the W-band, enabled through optical pulse shaping and a near-ballistic uni-traveling-carrier photodiode. Example waveforms spanning 75-110GHz with long time apertures are generated and measured after wireless propagation.
