Abstract

We present device characteristics on InP HEMT as a harmonic optoelectronic mixer. A single InP HEMT device performs photodetection of optically transmitted data, and frequency up-conversion of them into 60 GHz band. Several mixer performance characteristics are investigated and 622 Mbps data transmission in 60 GHz radio-on-fiber system is successfully demonstrated using InP HEMT harmonic optoelectronic mixer.
