Hybrid fiber-wireless (FiWi) access networks aim at combining the huge amount of available
bandwidth of optical networks and the ubiquity and mobility of wireless access networks with …

We have studied RF transmission over various multimode fibers (MMFs) and a standard
single-mode fiber, targeting picocellular networks for voice, data, and video applications …

Microwave to mm-wave radio carriers are commonly employed for creating high-capacity
picocell wireless networks. Advanced radio-over-fiber (RoF) techniques can efficiently …

After describing the beginnings and state of the art of integrated fiber‐wireless (FiWi)
broadband access networks in great detail, we briefly review recent progress and point to …

The transparent dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) for optical applications is proposed for
the first time. For demonstration, a dual function transparent hemispherical DRA made of …

This work describes a concept of a hierarchical radio-over-fiber (RoF) network architecture
that provides both intra-and inter-network connectivity for end user wireline and wireless …

Recent work on radio-over-multimode-fiber (MMF) transmission, for the support of wireless
LANs and current cellular systems operating at below 6 GHz, has shown that excellent …

This paper investigates performance impairments due to constraints imposed by the MAC
layer when single-mode fiber (SMF) is used to extend the reach of an IEEE 802.11 network …

We transmit multilevel quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) data-IEEE 802.16 schemes-
at 20 MSps and an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) 802.11 g signal (54 …

An experimental investigation of the influence of the fiber distribution of wireless LAN
(WLAN) signals on throughput performance is presented. Transmission using different …
