Research Summary
RF-over-Fiber (RFoF) is a technology that involves the transmission of radio frequency signals over fiber-optic cables. In RFoF systems, RF signals are converted into optical signals using an electro-optic or opto-electronic device at the transmission end. These optical signals are then transmitted over fiber-optic cables to the receiving end, where they are converted back into RF signals. RFoF technology is commonly used in applications such as distributed antenna systems (DAS), radar systems, and communication networks where the advantages of fiber-optic transmission, such as low signal loss and high bandwidth capabilities, are combined with the flexibility and accessibility of RF signals. RFoF systems help overcome signal degradation challenges associated with long cable runs, enabling the distribution of RF signals over extended distances without significant loss of signal quality. This technology is particularly beneficial in scenarios requiring efficient and reliable RF signal transmission over diverse locations, contributing to improved performance in various communication and sensing applications.
