Eng.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 2003  aFuture mobile communication systems have to meet the demands of broadband services. The combination of optical techniques and millimeter-wave techniques at very high frequency, namely Radio-Over-Fiber, is a promising an approach to cost-effective networks. Electro-Absorption and Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulators are the key components in Radio-Over-Fiber technology. Those external intensity modulators are used for generating millimeter-waves from Control Station. In the research, a comparison of Electro-Absorption and Mach-Zehnder electrooptic modulators is performed and their applicability in radio-over- fiber systems is discussed in order to more deeply understand the performance of these devices. Finally, the use of Electro-Absorption and Mach-Zehnder electro-optic modulators in particular radio-over-fiber application is suggested. 0aRadioxTransmitters and transmission 0aModulators (Electronics) 0aMillimeter wave communication systems1 aSharma, A.B.,eChairperson1 aAhmed, Kazi Mohiuddin,eExamination Committee1 aErke, Tapio J.,eExamination Committee2 aHo Chi Minh City Posts and Telecommunications Vietnam,eScholarship donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tResearch studies project report ;vno.
