Description
Summary:One type of fiber-optic access system, Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) network is designed to deliver broadband services to end-users over fiber. With the rapid increasing activity in FTTH deployments in Malaysia and the general desire to eventually migrate to these systems, the opportunities to simplify and cost reduce the deployment of such advanced networks has never been more significant. By implementing radio over fiber technology, this will lead to the reduction in the overall costs required to deploy photonic access point in FTTH networks today. The advanced Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system can provide higher capacity gain or higher diversity gain in the broadband networks. The combination of MIMO and Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) can harvest the benefits of high bit rate and low complexity equalization, respectively. The purpose of this study is to design and simulate the implementation of MIMO-OFDM based photonic access point. The system has been design to accommodate Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) 802.11n standard which is using data rate 130Mbps over carrier frequency 2.4GHz. The design is simulated using OptiSystem software. The performances were analyzed and presented in eye diagram and graphs from the simulation results.
