Optical Generation of 80 GHz Downstream Data in Radio over Fiber System Based on Stimulated Brillouin Scattering

In this work, we proposed Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) in an optical generation of millimeter waves (mm-waves) for radio over fiber (RoF) system with the transmission of 2.5 Gbps data rate. SBS method is achieved by imposing continuous wave (CW) laser in a single mode optical fiber (SMF) vi...

Description
Summary:In this work, we proposed Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) in an optical generation of millimeter waves (mm-waves) for radio over fiber (RoF) system with the transmission of 2.5 Gbps data rate. SBS method is achieved by imposing continuous wave (CW) laser in a single mode optical fiber (SMF) via Mach-Zehnder Modulator (MZM) with Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) and two pump lasers. Mm-waves signal of 80 GHz was generated from a 40 GHz radio frequency (RF) synthesizer. Simulation result and the analysis comparison of effective light power are investigated with different SMF loop length from 20 km until 120 km. The performance of SBS system is analysed and the generated of millimeter waves signal can be transmit with length up to 120 km based on eye pattern and Bit Error Rate (BER) curve.
