Microwave subcarriers have been used to demonstrate an optical communication system suitable for the distribution of digital video channels. The design, performance, and optical link requirements are discussed for a 2-Gb/s subcarrier-multiplexed (SCM) system with 20 microwave subcarriers modulated at 100 Mb/s and using a frequency-shift-keyed format. The system uses the 2-6-GHz bandwidth and represents the first example of an SCM system using more than one octave of bandwidth. The bit error rate was measured for all 20 channels; results for five typical channels are shown and discussed. The performance results show that a digital SCM approach is attractive in an optical link for a multichannel wide bandwidth video distribution system made from standard microwave components.
