Abstract
The future communication needs of network subscribers demand a broadband optical access tier that supports user mobility in a heterogeneous landscape of wireless networks. A hybrid architecture is proposed in this paper where high-frequency wireless data communication is enabled via a combination of optical code and radio-over-fiber techniques. The feasibility is confirmed by simulations in case of two spectrally-efficient modulation formats at a 1-Gb/s throughput.
