Digital radio distribution system over multiple cabling types

This paper demonstrates a novel digital radio distribution system able to transmit not only over optical fibres and coaxial cables but also over twisted pair cables. The digitised RF signal is compressed for maximum transmission efficiency in a way that allows for integral self-learning algorithms to be introduced for multi-service applications. © 2013 IEEE.

A novel SOA-based crosspoint switch for mixed signal distribution

A 3x3 SOA-based switch is demonstrated for routing both radio-over-fiber and digital signals simultaneously. High extinction ratio digital baseband signals are transmitted and sufficient linearity is found for high performance RF signal distribution. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
