Nonlinear biasing of MZ-EOM devices to experimentally reduce chromatic dispersion effects in antenna remoting up-converting fiber-optic links

摘要

The authors investigate the reduction of the dispersion-induced power penalty in harmonic up-converting millimeter-wave fiber-optic links by biasing appropriately the Mach-Zehnder electro-optical modulator. Experimental results on the carrier suppression effect are provided for three different types of bias.
