Abstract :
The radio-over-fiber coexistence of ECMA-384 ultra-wide band (UWB) with IEEE 802.16d (WiMAX) wireless transmission standards in indoor scenarios using 50 mum multi mode fiber and low cost 850 nm VCSEL transmitters, is explored in an experimental set-up. Both fiber transmission and radio propagation are measured demonstrating that coexistence of both wireless standards is possible in real indoor applications, the fiber dispersion being the main degradation factor.
