Abstract :
An LTCC-based photonic millimeter-wave receiver using a waveguide photodiode was developed for the detection of the analogue millimeter-wave optical signal transmitted over optical fiber. An LTCC- based photonic millimeter-wave receiver processed 2.67 Gbps of the HDTV data which are frequency-up converted optical signal of 60 GHz . The total bandwidth assigned for the HDTV is 528 MHz which is occupied by 88 channels whose unit channel bandwidth is 6 MHz. The transferred RF signal format was based on single carrier in 60 GHz band with 64 QAM modulation. The low cost LTCC based 60 GHz millimeter- wave photo-receiver was successfully demonstrated for the gigabit-per- second wireless HDTV broadcasting systems.
