摘　　要：The microwave photonic filters （MPFs） based on serially coupled silicon microring resonators （MRRs） are theoretically analyzed for the application of 60-GHz millimeter wave wireless personal area networks. This is achieved by calculating the improvement of bit error ratio （BER）. According to the simulation results, the requirement of signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） of the received data can be reduced by 14 dB for the same BER with and without MPFs. The performance of the MPF with five serially coupled microring structures is better than that of the MPF with a single microring, owing to the improvement of the shade factor.The microwave photonic filters （MPFs） based on serially coupled silicon microring resonators （MRRs） are theoretically analyzed for the application of 60-GHz millimeter wave wireless personal area networks.
