Abstract :
This paper proposes an optimization method for optical modulation indices in a cascaded radio-to-optic direct conversion radio highway in order to equalize the received CNRs of signals from all radio base stations. The CNR performance of the optimized system is shown to be significantly improved over that of the system using identical modulation indices
