Abstract :
The impact of fiber bending on mm-wave radio-over-fiber transmission is investigated and the need for bend insensitive fiber for front-haul installation confirmed. A 70m W-band hybrid photonic-wireless link including bend insensitive fiber is demonstrated with BER<;10-6 at 5mm bending radius.
