300 GHz wireless link based on an integrated Kerr soliton comb
Abstract
A Kerr microresonator frequency comb has enabled the generation of low-phase-noise millimeter- and terahertz-waves in conjunction with an ultrafast photodiode. It is intriguing to employ the new light source in wireless communication at above 100 GHz band, where a carrier signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio is desired to achieve higher data rates. In this study, we demonstrate two simple and efficient architectures of wireless links based on a microresonator comb. We show experimentally that simultaneous modulation and detection of multiple comb lines result in >10 times stronger modulation signal strength than two-line detection at a receiver. Successful transmission of complex modulation format up to 64 quadrature amplitude modulation proves that a microresonator comb and the proposed modulation method are effective in modern wireless communication.
