Hybrid Radio over Fiber and Visible Light (RoF-VLC) Communication System [PDF]
We experimentally demonstrate the integration of Radio-over-Fiber and Visible Light Communication technologies, into a hybrid system for indoor communication. The system, realized according to IEEE 802.11g standard, works effectively at typical office luminance level.

Fiber link design considerations for cloud-Radio Access Networks [PDF]
Analog radio over fiber (RoF) links may offer advantages for cloud-Radio Access Networks in terms of component cost, but the behavior of the distortion with large numbers of subcarriers needs to be understood. In this paper, this is presented in terms of

Investigation of Optical Modulators in Optimized Nonlinear Compensated LTE RoF System [PDF]
In this paper, we investigate a nonlinear compensation technique with two different architectures using direct modulation (DM) and external modulation (EM) techniques, termed as DM based frequency dithering (DMFD) and EM based frequency dithering (EMFD).

Statistical Distribution of EVM Measurements for Direct-Modulation Radio-Over-Fiber Links Transporting OFDM Signals [PDF]
The effect of distortion on the error vector magnitude (EVM) performance of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) signals with different numbers of subcarriers and the connection to the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of such signals is ...

Experimental demonstration of digital predistortion for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing-radio over fibre links near laser resonance [PDF]
Radio over fibre (RoF), an enabling technology for distribution of wireless broadband service signals through analogue optical links, suffers from non-linear distortion. Digital predistortion has been demonstrated as an effective approach to overcome the
