            Abstract : 
We experimentally investigate the impact of crosstalk on the performance of MB-OFDM UWB signal transmission in RoF WDM system. It is found that OFDM signal´s orthogonalities are almost kept after 20 km of fiber transmission even under adjacent channel crosstalk level of -5 dB. MB-OFDM UWB over fiber is robust to crosstalk from other channels.
