Abstract

This paper demonstrates a novel digital radio-over-fiber system using a millimeter-wave bridge giving access where fiber cannot. The system can transport multiple digitised LTE-compatible signals with high spectral efficiency, low latency, and wide dynamic range.

4. Conclusions This paper reports a system where compressed D-RoF signals are transmitted over a 100 GHz mmW wireless link, showing 3-times higher transmission efficiency than CPRI and no degradation of RF performance. The digitised RF transmission of our proposed system shows higher dynamic range than analogue mmW. The system architecture is scalable and can support neutral host scenarios when multiple wireless carriers can be carried over a single infrastructure. 5.
