| description | Radio over Fiber (RoF) is one of the latest technologies in optical communication
systems that provide effective convergence of optical and wireless access network
system. RoF is a technology whereby light is modulated by a radio signal and
transmitted over an optical fiber link to facilities wireless access. Wavelength�Division Multiplexing (WDM) is a multiplexing technique for fiber optic system to
multiplex a number of optical carrier signals onto a single-mode fiber optic (SMF) by
using difference wavelengths of laser light to carrier different signals which
promising solutions to the ever increasing demand for bandwidth. Orthogonal
Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technique distributes the data over a large
number of carriers that are spaced apart at precise frequencies with overlapping
bands. The use of FFT for modulation provides orthogonality to the sub- carriers,
which prevents the demodulators from seeing frequencies other than their own.
Hence by incorporating OFDM along with the optical fiber, the RoF system with
WDM can be used for both short distance as well as long-haul transmission at very
high data rate. This improves the system flexibility and provides a very large
coverage area without increasing the cost and complexity of the system very much.
This project investigates the feasibility of OFDM as a modulation technique to
transmit the basebands signal over SMF. RF-to-optical up-conversion and optical-to�RF down-conversion have been modeled and used as optical modulator and optical
demodulator respectively. Result from Optisystem model shows the performance of
OFDM signal through the WDM RoF access network. The system was utilized to
carry data rates 10Gbps, the modulation type for OFDM is 4 QAM 2 bit per symbol
for each channel and OFDM demodulator are employed together with coherent
detection at receiver part to receive the OFDM signals over a SMF network
transmission. The signal power is decreasing while the length of optical fiber was
increasing for channel 1 does not apply to other channels. |
