Abstract :
A novel optical cellular millimeter wave radio system is presented. The well-known methods in which the millimeter wave signal is distributed via a fiber have many drawbacks because they need very high speed photonic components. These problems are overcome by the new approach which utilizes a low frequency reference signal to phase lock a millimeter wave oscillator. The advantage of the new approach is in the application of low cost photonic components and in the small sensitivity to the fiber dispersion.
