Abstract

Temperature dependence in radio-over-fiber (RoF) broadband transmission applications far from baseband for short and middle reach distances is analyzed. Frequency response temperature dependence is evaluated by means of the transfer function of a multimode optical fiber (MMF) link based on the electric field propagation model. In this paper, a radio-over-fiber link with multimode optical fiber is experimentally and theoretically evaluated studying the changes of the frequency response with regards to the temperature induced to the optical fiber link.
