Abstract :
We demonstrate a time-slotted full-duplex analog/digital hybrid radio-over-fiber access network unit. A reflective semiconductor optical amplifier at the access point is used to erase the downlink 1.5-Gb/s baseband signal for 60-GHz-band 155-Mb/s uplink signal on the reused optical carrier.
