Title
Noise and nonlinearity of monolithic 38 GHz photoreceiver for OPTIC/mm-wave conversion
Abstract
The dynamic range of a monolithic InP-based photoreceiver (OEIC) for narrow band optical/mm-wave conversion in the 38 GHz range is investigated. Detailed circuit simulations based on a library of equivalent circuits exhibit excellent agreement with the characterization obtained by heterodyne measurements at lambda =1.55 mu m.
