Wireless and Optics - A Survey and Overview of Broad Band Fiber-Fed Radio Systems

Abstract

What is "Fiber Radio?" Fiber Radio is a fiber-fed radio system using fiber optic links or networks to distribute video, voice, and data for mobile and wireless applications. Antenna remoting is an example where MMW subcarriers at 18, 24, 38', or 60 GHz with information are transmitted from central office to base stations. This emerging technology has been demonstrated for applications such as community communications and pic%cell wireless systems for both uplinks and downlinks broadcast carrying CATV, WLAN signals and data ranging from 2 to 156 Mbps.
