摘要
我们提出并通过实验证明了一种基于强度调制器、无需数模转换器(DAC)即可生成自适应 N2-QAM W 波段矢量毫米波(mm-wave)信号的新方法。通过使用两个马赫-泽恩德(Mach-Zehnder)调制器、并联移相器、衰减器和单个光混频器,将两个 N 振幅移调(N-ASK)信号合成为 N2-QAM W 波段毫米波矢量信号。在这种方案中,发射器省略了 DAC 和额外的数字信号处理,用户端可获得双倍比特率。以 N = 2 的情况为例,我们最终使用 2-ASK 信号生成了 80-GHz 4-QAM W 波段毫米波,并在 1 米长的无线链路上完成了高性能传输。测得的误码率(BER)性能低于 7% 的硬判定前向纠错(HD-FEC)阈值 3.8 × 10-3。
