Abstract :
An antenna pattern measurement system above 100 GHz using a nested LiNbO3 Mach-Zehnder (LNMZ) modulator and a uni-traveling carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) is proposed. This system can minimize the influence of waveguide components because an optical fiber is used as the mm-wave transmission line. Therefore, this system achieves precise antenna pattern measurements above 100 GHz.
