Abstract
A scheme to realize the flexible photonic frequency multiplication at millimeter-wave (mm-wave) and radio over fiber (RoF) transmission has been proposed and demonstrated. To enable the generated multiple-frequency signal to have a better performance of phase preserving, we theoretically investigated the phase change during the generation and transmission and proposed an adaptive coding algorithm to reduce the impact of phase fluctuation. The coding algorithm brings the frequency multiplication and fiber transmission distance together into consideration and adjusts the phase of the signal consequently. Due to the proposed coding algorithm, the system not only realizes the flexible frequency multiplication but also eliminates the phase deviation induced by the modulation and fiber dispersion, which effectively increases the transmission distance of fiber link. In addition, it also reduces the complexity of phase retrieval at receiver side. A 50-GHz to 100-GHz RoF system with 1 Gbit / s radio signal has been implemented by numerical simulation, and the result shows that the adaptive mm-wave RoF system could realize arbitrary multiple-frequency of quadrature phase shift-keying signal from double to decuple and reliable transmission of the tenfold signal at least 50 km.
