Abstract :
Dense wavelength division multiplexed (DWDM) access network which allows to co-exists analog radio-over-fiber (RoF) and digital fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) systems is investigated. Focuses are on the enabling techniques such as optical-frequency-interleaved DWDM grid assignment, supercontinuum multi-wavelength light source, multi-band RoF and digital optical signals transmission, and optical path routing for dynamic channel allocation for wireless services.
