Optical transmission of microwave (MW) and millimeter-wave (MMW) signals have become an intensive research area in the last decade. There is a growing interest in optical processing of MW signals [1, 2], phased array ...

A new technique for remote upconversion of a 100 Mb/s BPSK microwave subcarrier signal is proposed and demonstrated. It is based on the insertion of an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer in a microwave fiber-optic link.

Various-depth field descriptions and their use are summarized. Effects in optical links are being investigated being of particular importance if QAM microwave signals are transmitted. In this framework modulator-induced ...
