Abstract :
A simple method for distribution of radio over fiber mm-wave signals for gigabit wireless access is presented. By heterodyning two uncorrelated lasers, the mm-wave carrier can be freely adjusted. A broadband diode detector in the mobile unit allows envelope detection without a local oscillator and capability for multi-channel configurations.
