A scheme for subcarrier-multiplexed fiber- optic mm-wave radio is proposed in this paper. Using an overdriven phase modulator, higher order optical sidebands can be generated. Three coherent lightwaves are produced from three laser diodes injection-locked to the optical carrier and the two optical modulation sidebands. The two laser diodes locked to the upper optical sidebands are bias current modulated by a group of subcarriers. When these waves are mixed in a PD, two mm-waves are obtained which contain the same amplitude modulations that are present in two of the lightwaves.
