Abstract :
Experimental results about the performance of converged radio-over- fiber transmission including multiband-OFDM UWB and WiMAX 802.16 e wireless over a passive optical network are reported in this paper. The experimental study indicates that UWB and WiMAX converged transmission is feasible over the proposed distribution set-up employing a single wavelength. However, the results indicate that there is an EVM penalty of 3.2 dB for a UWB 10 km SSMF transmission in presence of WiMAX wireless.
