Two-way wireless-over-fibre and FSO-over-fibre communication systems with an optical carrier transmission

摘要

Two-way wireless-over-fiber and free-space optical (FSO)-over-fiber communication systems, with an optical carrier transmission for a hybrid 10 Gbps baseband data stream, are proposed and practically demonstrated. 10 Gbps/50 GHz and 10 Gbps/100 GHz millimeter-wave data signal transmissions are also proposed and practically demonstrated. An optical carrier with a 10 Gbps baseband data stream is delivered via a 50 km single-mode fiber transportation to effectively lower dispersion-induced limitation due to fiber links and distortion produced by beating among multiple optical sidebands. To our understanding, this experiment is foremost in employing an optical carrier transmission approach to a two-way wireless-over-fiber and FSO-over-fiber communication system to suppress fiber dispersion and distortion effectively. Bit error rate performs well for downlink and uplink deliveries via a 50 km single-mode fiber transportation with a 100 m FSO link/5 m RF wireless delivery. The offered two-way wireless-over- fiber and FSO-over-fiber communication system with an optical carrier transmission is a promising option. It should be interesting for signifying the progress in the integration of longhaul fiber-based trunks and short-range RF/optical wireless link-based branches.
