Abstract

Nowadays, the RoF technology can utilize to converge the broadcasting and the broadband wireless communications, because of their huge bandwidth, and protocol transparency. Transmitting RF signals are deteriorated by the nonlinearity of the RoF link and following RF amplifier. This paper provides analysis method of intermodulation distortion and peak factor of multicarrier RF signals including IEEE802.11g, ISDB-T and IEEE802.16e-2005 over intensity modulation / direct detection (IM/DD) RoF link. Experimental evaluation is also presented in terms of the error vector magnitude (EVM).
