Abstract

This paper describes a robust radio-over-fiber wireless link system for use in wireless extension and mobile backhaul applications. The wireless link operates at 71-75 GHz E-band carrier frequencies and can transmit ultra-high access data such as Gigabit Ethernet or OC-48 up to 2.5 Gbps. Enabling photonic technologies, system configurations, and lab trials are presented.
