Abstract

A simple method of optical generation millimeter-wave signal employing optical phase modulator and band-elimination filter is proposed. This simple approach is capable generate millimeter wave signal of quadrupled or sextuple microwave source frequency with extremely high spectral purity. Millimeter-wave signal 26GHz (quadrupled fundamental frequency) or 39 GHz (sextuple fundamental frequency) is obtained respectively using different system chromatic dispersion when the microwave driver signal is at 6.5GHz.
