Abstract

This paper describes a wideband signal transmission system using an LED at an optical wavelength of 1.3 μm. The transmission bandwidth was approximately 300 MHz. The linearity of the system was satisfactory at an input signal level of -20 dBm or less for linear operation. The transmission of multi-channel FM video signals is given as an application of this system. The FM signals are transmitted simultaneously from an optical sender to an optical receiver through a GI optical fiber with a length of up to 2 km
