Abstract

We report an operational photonics-enabled 100 Gbit/s D-band antenna polarization multiplexing system (2 × 2 MIMO) with a carrier frequency of 141 GHz, and experimentally explores antenna misalignment effects on the signal performance in terms of bit error rate. Misalignments from −10 to 10 degrees were evaluated for both the E- and H-plane, highlighting the strict requirements needed to maintain a signal performance below forward-error correction codes thresholds. Our findings indicate tolerable misalignments are below 1 degree, hinting beam steering as a must for future D-band communication links.
