Performance Analysis of the WDM Schemes for RoF System with Various Bit Rate

Communication that combines the methodologies of the two communications can be considered as communication fiber optic communication and can be used in communication systems and wireless. The integration of optical and wireless networks can function to increase mobility and capacity as well as reduce costs in access networks. Radio over fiber (RoF) can be a solution for many problems because it can control many base stations (BS) connected to a central station (CS) with an optical fiber. The high bit error rate (BER) and low Q factor value are caused by the Rof signal head received in low quality, so the receiver may not operate on high data speed networks. The solution to different signal problems and can be done with single mode fiber is the Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) network. BER must be reduced to a guaranteed value, and the Q factor must be increased. WDM-RoF probes with different fiber lengths at various channel distances will be: simulated using Optisystem software, and the performance of the RoF receiver is measured and analyzed depending on the obtained BER, Q-factor value, and eye aperture height. The effects of degradation factors such as attenuation and dispersion are very limited with the addition of EDFA amplifier to Single Mode Fiber (SMF). The higher the bit rate of a communication system, the lower the performance of the system. In this study, analysis of the WDM-Rof system with bit rate variations was carried out to determine the bit rate value that still met the standard. From the simulation results, the Q-Factor and BER values at a bit rate of 11 Gbps do not meet the standards, i.e 4.50508 and 2.5390e-006.

Performance analysis of WDM-ROF network with different receiver filters

Abstract Radio over fiber (ROF) is a very attractive technology for the increasing demand for flexibility and transmission capacity and due to its high bandwidth and low attenuation, it offers an economic advantage. The wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) is used to multiplex the different wavelengths signals within a single optical fiber. In this paper, WDM-ROF system is analysed with different filters using an optisystem. Results were compared using max Q factor, min BER, and eye height parameters.

WDM-Based 160 Gbps Radio Over Fiber System With the Application of Dispersion Compensation Fiber and Fiber Bragg Grating

The demand for data transmission is rising expensively for the applications of biomedical sensors data, multimedia technologies, and ultrahigh-definition online video streaming. Such applications require larger bandwidth with minimum latency and seamless service delivery. Radio-over-fiber (RoF), integrated with wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, is being considered one of the promising technologies. However, the integration of optical fiber and wireless communication also generates non-linear effects as and when the number of users increases. That results in the introduction of signal noise, unwanted frequencies, low quality of signals, and increased latency. In this paper, a 16-channel 160 Gbps data rate WDM-based RoF system has been simulated and evaluated for optimum performance at a variable input power level, from 5 to −15 dBm, with the application of dispersion compensation fiber (DCF) and fiber Bragg grating (FBG), with channel spacing of 50 and 100 GHz. The performance of the system is evaluated with the existing WDM-RoF system. The performance metrics parameters chosen for evaluation are bit error rate (BER), quality factor (Q-factor), and eye diagrams and simulated on opti-system simulator. The optimum performance has been observed at a power level of −5 dBm for all these elected evaluation parameters. It has also been observed that, for channel spacing of 100 GHz, the network performed better in comparison with 50 GHz.

High-efficient full-duplex WDM-RoF system with sub-central station

With an additional sub-central station (S-CS), a high-efficient full-duplex radio-over-fiber (RoF) system compatible with the wavelength-division-multiplexing technology is proposed and experimentally demonstrated in this paper. To improve the dispersion tolerance of the RoF system, the baseband data format for the downlink and an all-optical down-conversion approach for the uplink are employed. In addition, this RoF system can not only make full use of the fiber link resources but also realize the upstream transmission without any local light sources at remote base stations (BSs). A 10-GHz RoF experimental system with a 1.25-Gb/s rate bidirectional transmission is established based on the S-CS structure. The feasibility and reliability of this RoF system are verified through eye diagrams and bit error rate (BER) curves experimentally obtained.

Self-interference cancellation using dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator for in-band full-duplex radio-over-fiber system.

In this paper, we design a self-interference cancellation (SIC) scheme for in-band full-duplex (IBFD) radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems based on wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) architectures. By using a single dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DDMZM), over various bands up to 25 GHz, this proposed SIC system can simultaneously cancel the in-band downlink (DL) self-interference and modulate the recovered uplink (UL) radio frequency (RF) signal. OFDM-RF signals are used to study the cancellation performances of optical SIC system for the first time. Experimental results show more than 32-dB cancellation depth over 250-MHz bandwidth within 1-GHz RF band, as well as 300-MHz within 2.4-GHz and 400-MHz within 5-GHz band. As for 2.4-GHz RF band, 390.63-Mbps 16-QAM OFDM UL signal buried by strong in-band DL OFDM signal is well recovered. For broadband applications, more than 27-dB cancellation depth is achieved over 10 MHz~25 GHz wideband, so that up to 25 GHz RF band can be expanded for this IBFD WDM-RoF system.

Enabled scalable and privacy wavelength division multiplexing-radio over fiber system based on optical virtual private networks

Abstract. A new wavelength division multiplexing (WDM)-based radio over fiber (RoF) system is proposed for optical virtual private network (OVPN) communication between inter-base stations (inter-BSs) or intra-BSs, using four-wave mixing (FWM) in a semiconductor optical amplifier as well as wavelength reflection of fiber Bragg gratings. By establishing inter-BSs and intra-BSs OVPN link of a 60-GHz WDM-RoF system, the private channels for the communication of end users under different BSs of sub-RoFs can be provided. In our scheme, 58 and 60-GHz millimeter waves are used to carry OVPN data and downstream data, respectively. Furthermore, the scalability of the proposed system is improved by the integration of an RoF system, WDM, and FWM. The simulation results successfully verify the feasibility of our proposed scheme.

A millimeter-wave WDM-ROF system based on supercontinuum technique

In this paper, a new millimeter-wave (mm-wave) wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system based on radio-over-fiber (ROF) technology is proposed. In this approach a multi-wavelength light source is obtained by supercontinuum (SC) technique, and mm-wave signals are obtained by using optical heterodyning method. We experimentally demonstrate the generation of optical carriers for 6-WDM channels, obtain 40 GHz mm-wave signals by employing optical heterodyne technique, and successfully achieve low error rate transmission of 2.5 Gbit/s in WDM channels over a distance of 25 km in a G.652 fiber. The experimental results verify that the proposed solution is feasible and cost effective.

OFDM modulated WDM-ROF system based on PCF-Supercontinuum

We have proposed a novel orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulated WDM radio over fiber (ROF) system by employing a single photonic crystal fiber (PCF) supercontinuum (SC) multi-wavelength lightwave source. Both wired and wireless applications of ROF access are achieved. In our experiment, we pick out four 40-GHz ROF channels by properly designed fiber Bragg grating (FBG). The 1-Gb/s 16QAM-OFDM downstream signal is demonstrated for both wired and wireless applications over 20-km standard single mode fiber (SMF). A 1-Gb/s OOK upstream signal is also transmitted over 20-km SMF successfully with less than 0.4dB power penalty.
