A novel optical frontend for ultra-high capacity of 32/spl times/2.5 Gbit/s data delivery in radio-over-fiber systems

We proposed and experimentally demonstrated a novel scheme based on optical carrier suppression modulation to realize 32/spl times/2.5 Gbit/s DWDM signals simultaneous up-conversion in a radio-over-fiber network. This scheme requires a simple configuration and low frequency electrical and optical components.
