Radio over fibre technologies for wideband in-building wireless coverage

This paper describes the use of radio over multimode fibre networks to allow wideband wireless coverage in building environments. It will cover basic principles, commercial applications of such networks and their extension to provide a converged communications/sensing system. © 2009 Optical Society of America.

Twin-spot launch for enhancement of multimode-fiber communication links

A novel twin-spot launch is proposed for multimode-fiber (MMF) links. Experimental and theoretical investigation of the launch indicates a penalty reduction of ≈50% of the 10 Gigabit Ethernet allocation for EDC-enabled links over worst-case MMF. © 2007 Optical Society of America.
