Abstract :
We propose and experimentally demonstrate the first optical physical-layer network coding (OPNC) prototype to boost throughput in an OFDM fiber-wireless network. Our technique does not require symbol-level synchronization and only requires moderate modifications of the packet preamble in IEEE 802.11 standard specification.
