High-resolution microwave frequency transfer over an 86-km-long optical fiber network using a mode-locked laser

Abstract

We demonstrate the transfer of an ultrastable microwave frequency by transmitting a 30-nm-wide optical frequency comb from a mode-locked laser over 86km of installed optical fiber. The pulse train is returned to the transmitter via the same fiber for compensation of environmentally induced optical path length changes. The fractional transfer stability measured at the remote end reaches 4×1017 after 1600s, corresponding to a timing jitter of 64fs.
