Dispersion causes a power penalty at certain fibre distances and frequencies in conventional millimetre-wave intensity modulation. Single sideband optical modulation at millimetre-wave frequencies using a fibre Bragg grating eliminates the dispersion-induced penalty over modulation frequency and fibre length.
