Abstract
The characteristics of radio over polymer optical fiber (RoPOF) are evaluated for indoor or in-building wireless coverage. The frequency responses and the third order intermodulation distortion products of the RoPOF link are investigated. The eye diagrams and EVM values of signals carrying quadrature-phase-shift-keyed (QPSK) data and global system for mobile (GSM) signals are measured to evaluate the transmission performance. The interference measurements with FDM are also carried out. The results show that although the nonlinear distortion and power loss deteriorate the system to some extent, making use of passband transmission, RoPOF can provide fairly good transmission performance for wireless applications.
