Abstract :
The latest technology that is in step with the growing demand on communication networks is the millimeter wave (MMW) technology that works in the 60 GHz band in radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems. In this paper, a 60 GHz RoF system with a simple frequency up-conversion scheme is investigated such that it can cover greater fiber distances without dispersion compensation. Re-modulation at the base station is also taken care of by this system architecture. A simulation model has been generated and tested for performance of the proposed system using the Optisystem software.
