Abstract: In the high-frequency microwave photonics field, Radio over Fiber (RoF ) technology has become a hot topic in the development of next generation broadband wireless communication technologies. In recent years, based on new optoelectronic devices that support RoF technology, several optical generation and receiving techniques of millimeter-wave subcarriers have been developed, including external modulation, radio frequency up-conversion, heterodyning and millimeter-wave modulated optical pulse generator. The development of these technologies will no doubt quicken the pace of commercialization of RoF technology.
