CURL Unable to find error in code

<?php
    $ch = curl_init("URL");
    $username = "USERNAME";
    $password = "PASSWORD";
    $fields = array("from"=>array("name"=>"Bob","city"=>"SAINT-LAURENT","country"=>"CA","state"=>"QC","postal_code"=>"H4R1W4"),"to"=>array("is_commercial"=>true,"city"=>"ANJOU","country"=>"CA","state"=>"QC","postal_code"=>"H1J1Z4"),"packages"=>array("units"=>"imperial","type"=>"package","items"=>array("width"=>1,"height"=>2,"length"=>3,"weight"=>4)));
    curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json'));
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPAUTH, CURLAUTH_BASIC);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, $username . ":" . $password);
    curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($fields));        
    $data = curl_exec($ch);
    if ($data === FALSE) 
    { 
        $temp=curl_error($ch);
        echo "<p>cURL Error: {$temp}</p>";
    }
    echo "<pre>";
    print_r($data);
    curl_close($ch);
?>

Error I got is 

  {"error": "Unexpected input. Please make sure this is a valid JSON document"}

I'm unable to understand what this meant .
After Update the error i get is
Argument 1 passed to Support\ExposedObjectAbstract::setFromArray() must be of the type array, integer given, called in Shipping/Packages.php on line 22 and defined

First set the HTTP header that you are sending JSON

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Type: application/json'));

And then, convert your array into JSON, and then setting to postfields

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($fields));

Your server end point (the URL you're calling) requires the input to be a valid JSON. In order to do this, you can replace:

$field_string = http_build_query($fields);

with:

$field_string = json_encode($fields);

$field_string = http_build_query($fields); is what the problem is , try to pass as array

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$fields);
