A Cost-Effective High-Speed Radio over Fibre System for Millimeter Wave Applications
Abstract
Future 5 G networks can enhance their wireless capacity and speed by effectively using high-frequency millimetre waves. Radio over fibres (RoF) is the promising technology to deliver millimetre waves over optical fibres as it integrates radio domain with wireless domain. The current study employed cost-effective non-return to zero scheme to encode 10 Gbps - 60 GHz data and wavelength division multiplexing scheme to transmit four channels over 60 km optical fibre link.
