Abstract :
This paper describes a two-way transmission system for sending a pair of wideband FM signals in both directions via an optical fiber. The transmission system using an LED at 1.3 μm has a bandwidth of approximately 300 MHz with a carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) of 16 dB. The optical fiber of 1 km long can be connected for two-way communications even though the optical power loss is great
