  1. 1. Millimeter-Wave Photonics: Signal Sources and Transmission Links

    Author : Andreas Wiberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microwave photonics; mm-wave generation; radio over fiber; photonic frequency multiplication; millimeter-wave photonics; millimeter-waves; millimeter-wave communication system;

    Abstract : With the use of higher and higher frequencies in a number of current and future wireless millimeter-wave applications it is beneficial to use photonics for several reasons. The use of optical fibers is an advantageous way to transport millimeter-waves in terms of loss, mechanical flexibility, weight, and insensitivity to electromagnetic interference. READ MORE
