Performance evaluation of wavelength division multiplexed radio-over-fiber de-multiplexer for 96-GHz-band frequency-modulated continuous-wave signal delivery

摘要

We have experimentally evaluated the performance of a newly developed WDM RoF de-multiplexer prototype with 200-GHz-spaced 5-channel WDM RoF signal carrying each 96-GHz-band FM-CW signal and showed the usefulness. Thanks to the lightness property of fiber optics, this technology will be applicable for an on-board mm-wave-band signal delivery system in an aircraft, such as a FM-CW distributed aperture system for synthetic aperture radar.
