✦ Synopsis


In this letter, we in¨estigate the combination of single-( ) ( ) sideband SSB and double-sideband DSB modulation techniques in up-con¨erting millimeter-wa¨e fiber-optic links. It is shown that the dispersion-induced power penalty due to fiber chromatic dispersion may be mitigated and e¨entually o¨ercome by employing MZ-EOM SSB modulation o¨er the local oscillator signal and r or the intermediate frequency signal. Experimental results are pro¨ided for the hybrid modulation scheme which combines both SSB and DSB.
