The wireless communication technology utilizes optical fiber to transmit and distribute radio frequency signals, can overcome the electronic bottlenecks of high loss, low frequency and narrow bandwidth of the traditional microwave system, and becomes a new key enabling technology. In recent years, with the continuous increase of broadband wireless services and intelligent terminal equipment, the radio over fiber technology has been widely applied in Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) by virtue of its outstanding advantages of low loss, large bandwidth, high transmission rate, strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability, etc., and has become an ideal and effective solution for replacing microwave cable links. However, with the use of advanced data modulation formats, such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signals, signal distortion tends to be easily caused due to high peak power ratio (PAPR), which puts strict requirements on linearity and bandwidth of an over-the-optical wireless communication link. Therefore, linearization of wireless communication links over optical carriers has become the greatest challenge facing researchers in the field of microwave photonics today. The Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) is a key device in an optical carrier wireless communication link, the main function of the Mach-Zehnder modulator is to perform electro-optical conversion, but the inherent nonlinear characteristic of the electro-optical conversion will generate serious third-order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) and second-order harmonic distortion (HD2), deteriorate the spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) and the bandwidth of a system, and become a main obstacle for the application and development of the optical carrier wireless communication link in a DAS system. Therefore, how to suppress IMD3 and HD2 simultaneously in an over-the-air wireless communication link, realizing high-linearity multi-channel signal transmission and distribution has become a hot point of research in the field of microwave photonics, and has urgent needs in scenes with many mobile device connections and many broadband applications, such as conference centers, ground drop tunnels, airports, and the like.

and 5: in order to eliminate third-order intermodulation distortion, conditions g (γ, α) of 0 and f (γ, α) of 0 must be satisfied. As can be seen from the expression of the function f (γ, α), the suppression of third-order intermodulation distortion inevitably causes a loss of rf output power. In order to maximize the radio frequency output power on the basis of eliminating third-order intermodulation distortion, an optimization model under an equality constraint condition is established according to the Lagrange multiplier theory, and the result is expressed as follows:

and 4, step 4: the optical signal output by the third-order intermodulation distortion suppression unit is injected into a photoelectric detector for photoelectric conversion, and the output photocurrent of the point c is as follows:
Figure FDA0002877861470000031
where f (γ, α) and g (γ, α) are functions of the rf output power and the third-order conditional intermodulation distortion power with respect to the rf power ratio γ and the polarization incidence angle α, respectively, and can be expressed as:
Figure FDA0002877861470000032
and 5: in order to eliminate third-order intermodulation distortion, conditions g (γ, α) of 0 and f (γ, α) of 0 must be satisfied. As can be seen from the expression of the function f (γ, α), the suppression of third-order intermodulation distortion inevitably causes a loss of rf output power. In order to maximize the radio frequency output power on the basis of eliminating third-order intermodulation distortion, an optimization model under an equality constraint condition is established according to the Lagrange multiplier theory, and the result is expressed as follows:
L(γ,α,λ)=f(γ,α)-λg(γ,α) (5)
where λ represents the lagrange multiplier, and f (γ, α) and g (γ, α) are the objective function and the constraint function of the optimization model. Taking the first partial derivative of equation (5) and letting L be 0, the following expression can be obtained:
Figure FDA0002877861470000033
solving equation (6) can yield:
Figure FDA0002877861470000041
therefore, from the lagrangian optimization results, when the radio frequency power ratio is an arbitrary value, and the polarization incidence angle is 0.34 radians, the radio frequency output power can reach the maximum value.
