Abstract :
A 3.9 GHz RF-optical subcarrier multiplexed (OSCM) packet transmission system is simulated and experimentally demonstrated. Simulation results show that integration of the RF subsystem will greatly enhance system performance and require less power to be tapped from the fiber for header detection and processing.
