Abstract :
A frequency-reconfigurable radio-over-fiber (RoF) signal convertor based on an optical frequency comb is proposed for application to a millimeter-wave/terahertz/optical hybrid system. The frequency transition from the RoF signal at 83 GHz to the higher millimeter-wave and terahertz signals is successfully demonstrated.
