Title 120-GHz wireless link using photonic techniques for generation, modulation, and emission of millimeter-wave signals Type Journal Article
Year 2003 Publication J. of Lightwave Technology Abbreviated Journal
Volume 21 Issue 10 Pages 2145-2153
Keywords subterahartz terahertz THz communications
Abstract We present a wireless link system that uses millimeter-wave (MMW) photonic techniques. The photonic transmitter in the wireless link consists of an optical 120-GHz MMW generator, an optical modulator, and a high-power photonic MMW emitter. A uni-traveling carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) was used as the photonic emitter in order to eliminate electronic MMW amplifiers. We evaluated the dependence of UTC-PD output power on its transit-time limited bandwidth and its CR-time constant limited bandwidth, and employed a UTC-PD with the highest output power for the photonic emitter. As for the MMW generation, we developed a 120-GHz optical MMW generator that generates a pulse train and one that generates a sinusoidal signal. The UTC-PD output power generated by a narrow pulse train was higher than that generated by sinusoidal signals under the same average optical power condition, which contributes to reducing the photocurrent of the photonic emitter. We have experimentally demonstrated that the photonic transmitter can transmit data at up to 3.0 Gb/s. The wireless link using the photonic transmitter can be applied to optical gigabit Ethernet signals.

Title A 120-GHz integrated photonic transmitter Type Conference Article
Year 2000 Publication Proc. International topical meeting on microwave photonics (MWP 2000) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 225 - 228
Keywords THz, teraherts communications, terahertz communication channel, photodiode, transmitter
Abstract A photonics-based 120-GHz transmitter has been developed. A photodiode, a planar antenna and a silicon lens were integrated to form a compact millimeter-wave (MMW) emitter. The MMW signal emitted from the transmitter has been detected with a waveguide-mounted Schottky diode. The received power exceeded 100 μW, which is the highest value ever reported for photonic MMW transmitter at frequencies of >100 GHz

Title Sub-Terahertz Wireless Communications Technologies Type Conference Article
Year 2005 Publication Proc. 18th International Conference on Applied Electromagnetics and Communications (ICECom 2005) Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 1-4
Keywords subterahartz terahertz THz communications
Abstract This paper presents a 10-Gb/s wireless link system that uses a 120-GHz-band sub-terahertz electro-magnetic waves. In the transmitter, photonic techniques are used for generation, modulation, and emission of the sub-THz signals, while the receiver is composed of all-electronic devices using InP-HEMTs.
