Abstract
As multimedia service demands rise, radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems necessitate a flexible wireless resource allocation in multi-user scenarios. Optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) can meet multi-user application scenarios but has the problems of high hardware cost and complexity. In this Letter, we propose a photonic-aided reconfigurable multichannel vector millimeter-wave (mm-wave) transmission scheme in the RoF system enabled by the digital subcarrier multiplexing (DSCM) technique. The scheme can flexibly adjust the number and frequency spacing of subcarriers as well as the bandwidth and modulation format allocated to each subcarrier, and it can be applied to multi-user scenarios without increasing the cost and complexity of hardware implementation. The off-line experiments verify the system transmission performance with different numbers, bandwidth, and frequency spacing of subcarriers, fully verifying the feasibility of the scheme. Furthermore, the Letter delves into the effects of the subcarrier number, bandwidth, and frequency spacing on overall system performance, highlighting the potential of this scheme for flexible and cost-effective wireless resource allocation in RoF systems.
