Abstract :
High frequency, narrowband radio transmission over multimode fibre is shown to be possible with performance comparable to singlemode fibre using low-cost lasers and photodiodes. This allows the use of existing fibre cable infrastructures within buildings for the realisation of cost effective distributed antenna systems
