A Hybrid Millimeter-Wave and Free-Space-Optics Communication Architecture with Adaptive Diversity Combining and HARQ Techniques

We propose and demonstrate a hybrid communication architecture that combines millimeter-wave (MMW) in the radio frequency (RF) domain and free-space-optics (FSO) technologies using adaptive combining and hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) techniques. At the receiving end, we employed joint signa...
