Uplink burst LTE-A signal transmission on a converged millimeter-wave and RoF system

We propose a high-speed uplink burst-mode LTE-A signal transmission on a converged millimeter-wave and radio-over-fiber system. By using a newly developed burst-mode optical amplifier, we successfully transmit an uplink 5-carrier component LTE-A signal over a converged 5-m 92.5-GHz wireless link and 20-km radio-over-fiber system.
