Abstract :
Existing regulatory restricts wireless range of ultra wide band (UWB) radio communication distances to several tens of meters due to its low transmit power. This paper introduces multimode radio-over-fiber (ROF) to extend the range of wireless UWB radios. In this work, UWB pulses are transmitted over multimode RoF to realise a low cost distributed antenna system. Single mode RoF tends to be expensive. Experimental BER results over various transmission distances will be presented.
