Abstract

We demonstrate a Dynamic Capacity Allocation scheme for the realization of Moving Extended Cells in Radio-over-Fiber networks. Our scheme exploits a reconfigurable MEMS-based Central Office architecture for routing of and switching between six data carrying wavelengths, forming in this way cell clusters that transmit the same information content and can move with the mobile user. Error free transmission through 25 km SMF is presented for a 5-cell MEC structure, with each optical channel carrying 500 Mb/s data subcarrier-modulated at 8.5 GHz.
