Remote downconversion scheme for uplink configuration in radio/fiber systems [PDF]
The authors present a novel technology for uplink transmission in radio over fiber (RoF) distribution systems. The technique employs remote downconversion of the uplink data to intermediate frequency (IF) in the base station (BS).
