- Abstract :
In this letter, a full-duplex radio-on-fiber system using a newly
developed 60-GHz-band optical transceiver is investigated.
We fabricated a 60-GHz-band two-radio-frequency (RF)-port
electroabsorption transceiver (EAT) module, which is the first
developed 60-GHz-band optical trasceiver in the world.
The EAT module has individual RF input and output ports,
each with impedance-matching circuits that enhance modulation
and detection efficiencies near 60 GHz. A radio-on-fiber testbed
adopting the EAT has an advantage that a base station becomes
the simolest configuration, which basically consists of only the
60-GHz-band EAT. Using the radio-on-fiber testbed, the simultaneous
transmission of 59.6-GHz (downlink) and 60.0-GHz (uplink) signals
with data of 156 Mb/s is experimentally demonstrated.
