Abstract

To realize low-cost antenna base station (BS) of the millimeter-wave (mm-wave) fiber-radio access systems, an approach to a single optical component at the BS is presented by introducing 60-GHz-band electroabsorption transceiver (EAT). By using an EAT the full-duplex 60-GHz mm-wave 156-Mb/s access system and optical add-drop multiplexing of WDM ring network will be discussed.
