Abstract

We have proposed and successfully demonstrated a new architecture of MMW RoF system with wavelength reuse to deliver VHT data/video services. Based on PolM-to-IM conversion, frequency multiplied MMW (54.8-GHz) and intensity-free OC with slight phase fluctuation were received by adjusting PCs. 1.0-Gb/s OOK DS signal has been transmitted over 25-km SMF and air links. Meanwhile, successful transmission of the rate-symmetric US signals is implemented by reusing the light-wave. Additionally, in order to strengthen the stability of the device, a commercial automatic polarization tracker could be employed to replace PC we used in BS.
