Abstract :
We demonstrate novel full-duplex optical-wireless architecture using optical phase modulator and interleaver for downstream optical mm-wave generation and wavelength reuse for upstream. A directly modulated SOA is employed to eliminate amplifiers and external modulators at the base station.
