Abstract

For phase stabilization of two-tone coherent millimeter-wave/microwave carrier generation, two types of phase detection schemes were devised based on lightwave interferometric technique, the Mach-Zehnder interferometric method and the pseudo Mach-Zehnder interferometric method. The former system showed clear eye patterns at both OOK and PSK modulations of 1 Gbit/s on the 12.5-GHz carrier. The latter system demonstrated the error-free transmission at OOK modulation of 11 Gbit/s on the 100-GHz carrier.
