Novel Hybrid Radio-over-Fiber Transmitter for Generation of Flexible Combination of WDM-ROF/WDM Channels

We propose a transmitter capable of seamlessly generating any combination of WDM-ROF/WDM channels and demonstrate the highest WDM-ROF channel-number from a single laser-modulator pair with 100-km SSMF plus 0.5-m wireless transmission at 12×2.5-Gb/s and 10×4-Gb/s.
