  • Abstract
    In this work, a spectrally efficient frequency division multiplexing (SEFDM) scheme based on radio over fiber (RoF) technology is proposed for the first time, so as to address next generation wireless data traffic demands on a cost, energy & spectrally efficient way. A proposed radio over fiber topology for beyond 4G deployment is addressed and a proof-of-concept SEFDM long term evolution (LTE) type radio over multimode fiber transmission is successfully demonstrated at 36Mb/s.
