Abstract :
A continuous-wave (CW) millimetre-wave (MMW) was generated by using optical signal propagating nonlinear materials for MMW wireless communications and ubiquitous communications systems. The generated MMW signals were radiated in a millimetre waveguide and detected by a detector. The spectral linewidth of the MMW signals was less than 1 kHz, and the power fluctuation of the MMW was less than 1.5 dB over a 30-50 GHz range.
