We analyze and compare the performance of an analog radio-over-fiber and a new digital fronthaul in a chromatic dispersion-limited scenario. The former uses several analog channels, generated by up- and down-converting of baseband signals, and the latter utilizes simple OOK NRZ for the transmission to the remote radio head. Both principles are applied to a custom millimeter-wave system, consisting of several analog channels with baseband bandwidths as expected for 5G. The performance of both concepts at transmission rates of up to 100 Gb/s and 100 km of fiber is evaluated. We will show that both approaches are suitable for transmission distances typical for fronthaul and discuss their advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, an optimized bandwidth concept for the analog radio-over-fiber system is presented, which enables transmission distances on the scale of metro networks. 2021-07-28 iCIRRUS dataset http://kar.kent.ac.uk/62993 publication 10.23919/ONDM.2017.7958539 DOI https://kar.kent.ac.uk/64095/ http://dx.doi.org/10.23919/ONDM.2017.7958539 IsSupplementTo pub 2017-08-31 2023-06-08 FALSE 2017-08-31 2021-02-16 12300 School of Engineering and Digital Arts 2021-02-16 12300/1 Broadband & Wireless Communications 2022-04-14 13200 0 Kent Business School 2025-06-03 13100 School of Computing 644526 English University of Kent -1
