Abstract :
A 120 Mbit/s QPSK radio signal has been transported over 100 km of optical fibre and then transmitted on a 60 GHz carrier in free-space. This was achieved using an injection-locked master/slave DFB arrangement to generate the carrier centrally and a remote modulation architecture for mixing the carrier with data signals
