Abstract

Abstract Radio over Fiber technology is a promising solution for next-generation wireless communication networks. In radio over fiber systems, signal distortions caused by modulator nonlinearity is a major concern. In this paper, a full duplex dispersion compensating system using chromatic dispersion is proposed. A system using 16 QAM OFDM signal transmission is presented. Distortion compensation is observed when a required amount of dispersion is added. Bit Error Rate (BER) and constellation diagrams for different amount of dispersion are analyzed and its comparison is presented. Since the framework utilizes just a single persistent wave laser for upstream and downstream transmission the base station is additionally disentangled and it diminishes the general framework cost. Signal distortions are reduced when the dispersion is adjusted to 640 ps/nm for uplink transmission and 760 ps/nm for downlink transmission.
