Abstract

Abstract The urge for high-speed data transmission never ends. The demand for seamless online video streaming services demands a faster data transmission rate. To fulfil the demand optical communication can be used to enhance the overall performance. The union of microwave and optical networks known as Radio-over-Fibre (RoF) technology, may be a reasonable solution for improving capacity and mobility likewise as decreasing costs within the access network. Millimetre-wave (mm-wave) signals can be utilized for multi-Gb/s transmission. But mm-wave generation in the electrical domain is less feasible. Here, the optical domain comes into play. In this paper, two mm-wave frequencies are generated using optical frequency combs (OFCs). This technique is an effective solution for the mm-wave RoF system for 5G and beyond. By simulation, the major restraints of linewidth and relative intensity noise (RIN) are explored. RIN level of −163 dB/Hz is achieved.
