Implementation of Broadband Radio over Fibre (RoF) Passive Optical Networks (PON) using Optisystem

Abstract

It has been observed in the recent decade that there has been a huge demand for the Radio wave communication. On the other side, optical communication getting special attention of researchers since it facilitates System Reliability, Higher data rates, Enormous Bandwidth availability, Electrical isolation etc. When we combine both types of communication discussed above, the resulting system would be the best communication system. Traditional systems used normal light wave to modulate other light waves. In this paper a special system that makes use of Radio waves to modulate light signals. Radio over Fibre (RoF) or RF over Fibre (RFoF) is a method of optical communication is a linearization technique used in order to reduce nonlinear distortion and increase receiver sensitivity. The reader is expected to have sound knowledge of Optical Communication Networks and Radio wave communication.
