Abstract
This paper presents a wideband photonic antenna consisting the laser diode, matching circuit, RF amplifier and microstrip patch antenna are fabricated and connected together to perform in uplink system. Laser driver is used to supply the dc biasing for the laser. Lastly, the LD-matching circuit, RF amplifier and antenna were arrange together and connected to perform the wireless uplink system. The simulated and measured results are presented and discussed. These results show useful photonic antenna design that achieves relatively wide bandwidth and has potential to be applied in RoF technology.
