Real-time dual-band wireless videos in millimeter-wave radio-over-fiber system

A dual-band converged radio-over-fiber (RoF) access system at 60-GHz and 100-GHz millimeter-wave (mm-wave) is proposed. Real-time end-to-end delivery of two channels of independent high-definition (HD) video services simultaneously carried on 60-GHz and 100-GHz radios is demonstrated for the first time. PRBS data transmission with equivalent data rate and format is also tested to characterize the system performance. The analysis of the spectrum from the beating signal indicates the entire 60-GHz band and the W-band can be retrieved without interference. The real-time HD video display and error-free (BER < 10-9) data transmission demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed wireless access system using converged fiber-optic and mm-wave RoF techniques.
