Radio over Fiber for Wireless Communications: From Fundamentals to Advanced Topics

Description

A comprehensive evaluation of Fi-Wi, enabling readersto design links using channel estimation and equalizationalgorithms This book provides a detailed study of radio over fiber (ROF)based wireless communication systems, otherwise called fiberwireless (Fi-Wi) systems. This is an emerging hot topic where theabundant bandwidth of optical fiber is directly combined with theflexibility and mobility of wireless networks to provide broadbandconnectivity. Its application is increasing because of thegrowing demand for broadband wireless services. In such a systemthe transmission of the radio signals over a fiber is an importanttask. This book provides substantial material on the radio overfiber part of the complete fiber-wireless system, including newresearch results on the compensation methods. The early chapters provide fundamental knowledge required for anon-expert engineering professional as well as senior/graduatelevel students to learn this topic from scratch. The latter part ofthe book covers advanced topics useful for researchers and seniorstudents. Therefore, this book provides a comprehensiveunderstanding of the system for readers who will gain enoughknowledge to design Fi-Wi links of their own by learning how todevelop Fi-Wi channel estimation and equalization algorithms. Thisconcept is completely novel in current literature and has beenpatented by the author. Readers are expected to have a basic understanding of fiberoptics and wireless communications to easily follow the book and toappreciate the concepts. Basics of the Fi-Wi system and signalprocessing approaches are clearly explained. It covers amultidisciplinary topic and acts as a bridge between optical andwireless communication domains. In the increasingly demandingtelecommunications profession, engineers are expected to haveknowledge in both optical and wireless communications and expecteddesign combined/hybrid systems. Hence, the book is written in sucha way that both optical and wireless professionals will be able toeasily understand and perceive the concepts. follows a logical process from basic principles through toadvanced topics, providing a wide range of interest forresearchers, practicing engineers, students, and those required tobuild such networks explains detailed system design concepts and the limitationsand advantages in each configuration, appealing to designengineers, and largely avoiding system specifics demonstrates the author’s exclusive patent, showing howto develop baseband signal processing algorithms for Fi-Wi systems,which is a key requirement for the successful deployment of Fi-Wisystems contains tables, numerical examples and case studies,facilitating a good quantitative understanding of the topic
