Novel Enabling Technologies for Convergence of Optical and Wireless Access Networks
Author_Institution :
NEC Lab. America, Princeton, NJ
Abstract :
Advanced enabling technologies for optical wireless integration are discussed. These enabling technologies include new schemes to generate low-cost optical millimeter-wave signal, ROF network configuration compatible with WDM-PON, and wavelength reuse. We will also report a test-bed for ROF network providing over 2.5 Gbit/s bandwidth for transmission wireless and wired data and HTDV signals.
