The authors demonstrate that an optoelectronic millimetre-wave (MM-wave) laser mixer operating at 38 GHz is capable of managing different modulation formats at different rates with the same identical operating conditions. This mixer is a relatively simple and compact optical source which integrates a wideband distributed transimpedance amplifier with a fast MQW VUG DFB laser. The mixer is fed with an electrical power of only 3 dBm at 7.6 or 9.5 GHz to provide the 38 GHz carrier. The device is capable of handling generated harmonics with either 16 QAM at 5 Mbits/s, QPSK at 60 Mbits/s or NRZ at 622 Mbits/s signals over 15 km fibre-fed MM-wave radio systems without optical amplification
