Optical Strategies for Generating and Transmitting Signals in OFDM-RoF Systems

چکیده
Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) systems which act as backbone networks are very promising means of reducing overall costs of 60 GHz WPANs, as well leading to networks with limited intercellular interference. The main objective of this paper is to compare the performance of two systems that generate Optical Single Side Band (OSSB) OFDM signals at the mm-wave band with and without optical up-conversion. Both systems use a DD-MZM: one is a standard model, whereas the other is a DD-MZM cascaded with a phase modulator (PM). The comparative study presented here also includes practical impairments such as the finite extinction ratio of DD-MZMs.

متن کاملPractical Issues in the Combining of MIMO Techniques and RoF in OFDM/A Systems
In this paper, several multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) techniques are studied for OFDM/A systems which have antennas connected to the base station with radio over fiber (RoF). The delay effects caused by the optical fibers on the fixed-beam transmit beamforming are studied via Monte Carlo simulations. Also the effect of combining RoF with other MIMO techniques in OFDM/A systems, like spat...

The impact of fiber Bragg grating induced dispersion on the performance of frequency interleaved WDM radio-over-fiber (RoF) links with OFDM signaling is assessed. A comparison is given for both uniform and quarter-cosine apodized gratings. The frequencyinterleaved optical signals are transported over 10-km-long standard single-mode fiber (SMF) in optical double-sideband (ODSB) format and filter...

1. Introduction Radio on Fiber (RoF) system can provide low-cost and high-performance radio-wave distribution by using remote access units (RAUs) where lightwave modulated by radio-wave is converted to radio-wave by a high-speed photodetector (PD) [1]. In microwave bands, RoF systems are successfully used for mobile services to provide signals to the mobile terminals located at such shadowing a...
