  • Abstract
    Coherence multiplexing (CM) based Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) system is experimentally investigated for the first time for both single tone RF signal and ultra-wideband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (UWB-OFDM) signal. The impact of received optical power, linewidth of the optical source, input RF power and fiber length are considered. It is found that the system is seriously limited by beat noise and fiber dispersion.
