Abstract

In an attempt to meet the goal of distributing millimeter-wave (mm-wave) signals, recent years have witnessed significant relevance being given to combining radio frequency with optical fiber technologies. The future of radio-over-free-space-optics technology aims to build a universal platform for distributing millimeter waves for wireless local area networks without using expensive optical fibers. This work is focused on simultaneous transmission of four independent OFDM-based channels, each carrying 20 Gbps to 40 GHz data, by mode-division multiplexing of Laguerre–Gaussian mode with vortex lens and Hermite–Gaussian mode to realize a total transmission of 80 Gbps to 160 GHz data over 50-km free-space optical link. Moreover, the performance of the proposed system is also evaluated under the influence of various atmospheric turbulences, such as light fog, thin fog, and thick fog.
