8x30 Gbps RZ-RoF-WDM System Using Optical DSB-SC For Long-Distance Networks

Abstract

8x30 Gbps WDM system will be adapted with Radio-over-Fiber system destined for long distance networks. The Optisystem will be the simulation environment for this proposed WDM system using the RZ encoding system. 60 GHz is chosen as the radio-frequency because it symbolizes the future 5G band and its applications. The results are reported in terms of quality factor, bit error rate and the eye diagrams. The results show that a laser with a power of 10 dBm in each channel can transmit data across a distance of 2400 km while maintaining the desired performance.
