Abstract

We have demonstrated an optical generation of highly stable millimeter-wave signal distribution system, which transfers a 300GHz signal to two remote ends over different optical fiber links for signal stability comparison. The transmission delay variations of each fiber link caused by temperature and mechanical perturbations are compensated by high-precise phase-correction system. The residual phase noise between two remote end signals is detected by dual-heterodyne phase error transfer and reaches -46dBc/Hz at 1 Hz frequency offset from the carrier. The relative instability is 8×10^-17 at 1000s averaging time.
