Abstract :
This paper investigates the performance when the IEEE 802.11g standard is used in a radio-over-fiber (RoF) network. We report that the IEEE 802.11g throughput may be dramatically deteriorated in RoF systems. We then show the possibility to adapt the slottime parameter in order to improve the IEEE 802.11g performances in RoF networks.
