IEEE 802.11ad Packet Transmission Based SSB Optical Modulation on Radio-Over-Fiber in the 90-GHz Band

Abstract

In order to realize a high-speed wireless link for a high-speed vehicle, such as a bullet train, we propose a radio over fiber (RoF) technique with a single-sideband optical modulator. The system is compliant with the IEEE 802.11ad standard and operation in the W-band is successful. The optical modulator is driven by an automatic bias controller. In this paper, we report a demonstration of the RoF system, which has archived an error vector magnitude of 4.8% on 16-QAM.
