Abstract :
A simplified scheme for the multiplexing of multiple wavelength interleaved millimeter-wave (37.5 GHz-band) fiber-radio channels spaced at 25 GHz is proposed and demonstrated. The scheme which is based on a AWG multiplexer can provide improved link performance by reducing the carrier-to-sideband ratio (CSR).
