AbstractA subcarrier multiplexed radio over fiber (RoF) system using optical single sideband (OSSB) modulation is proposed. OSSB modulation reduces the bandwidth requirements and also combats the radio frequency (RF) power fading issue due to the dispersive effects in optical fiber. Subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) is a technique used to transmit multiple RF signals through the same optical fiber to utilize its large bandwidth. A theoretical analysis showed that OSSB generation with a number of subcarriers can be done by Hilbert transform method employing a single dual drive Mach–Zehnder Modulator (MZM). This technique is very relevant in the emerging 5G standards which require accesses of multiple standards simultaneously (5G, LTE, and Wi-Fi). This paper demonstrates a low cost solution of OSSB-RoF system and more effective utilization of the spectrum. Simulations results showing satisfactory reception of signals up to 50 km.

Doubled frequency optical two-tone generation and optical single sideband (SSB) modulation by the dual-electrode-type electro-optic (EO) modulator with a single Mach–Zehnder (MZ) interferometer were considered. We theoretically showed that redundant spectrum components in the modulated optical signals, which are caused by the imbalance of light splitting ratio between the two arms of the interferometer, are significantly suppressed by controlling the input power ratio of RF modulation signals applied to each electrode. This effect was confirmed by the experiment, where an optical two-tone with the redundant components 49.8 dB lower than the primary two-tone components in intensity level was obtained. This method is also valid for suppression of undesired frequency components of RF signals that are generated at a photo detector from the optical two-tone waves propagated through a dispersive optical fiber.
