Transmission analysis of OFDM millimeter-wave radio-over-fiber system

In this paper, a novel configuration which has ability to transmit very high bit-rate data at a rather low cost is proposed. We investigate and theoretically analyze the performance of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based signal transmission over Millimeter-Wave Radio-over-Fiber (OFDM mm-Wave RoF) systems in term of Signal to Distortion Ratio (SDR). The SDR depending on Optical Modulation Index (OMI) and transmitted OFDM signal power will be shown and discussed.
