Abstract

We address the development of mobile fronthaul (MFH) radio-over-fibre (RoF) transceivers with the capability to transport Digital RoF (D-RoF) signals for C-RAN applications. The coexistence of transport of D-RoF with legacy and the future Passive Optical Network (PON) systems, such as Next Generation PON 2 (NG-PON2) will be analysed. The preliminary experimental results of transmitting several D-RoF signals with high spectral efficiency and based on Sub-Carrier Multiplexing (SCM) techniques will be presented.
