Dual-service wireless LAN antenna-remoting system using uncooled directly modulated D'FB laser diodes

We report a fibre-optic wireless distribution system, which allows antenna-remoting of a dual-service IEEE 802.11b/g WLAN operating at 2.4GHz up to 700m over low-bandwidth 62.5/125μm MMF using highly linear uncooled directly modulated laser diodes. © 2004 Optical Society of America.

Silicon avalanche photodiodes for low cost, high loss short wavelength radio over fiber links

An APD is shown to improve the noise figure of a lossy optical link compared to a PIN-TIA combination of equivalent gain. Transmission of IEEE 802.11g WLAN signals is demonstrated with 18dB optical link loss. © 2009 Optical Society of America.

High performance uncooled 1.3μm VCSELs for RF-over-fiber applications

Uncooled directly-modulated 1.3μm VCSELs are shown to exhibit dynamic range, linearity and noise performance required for wireless LAN applications. A multimode fiber based WLAN 802.11b system shows performances comparable to systems with state-of-the-art DFB lasers. © 2005 Optical Society of America.
