Abstract

Radio over Fiber (RoF) system uses a process in which light is modulated by radio frequency (RF) signal and then this RF signal is transmitted with the help of optical fiber. In other words, we can say that a system which is used to transfer a RF signal over a link of optical fiber is known as RoF system. RoF accommodates the large no. of users as compared to traditional wireless communication system as it utilized large bandwidth of optical fiber. With the help of RoF system signals can be transmitted in outdoor ranges as well as in densely populated areas. Nowadays, RoF seems to be an attractive system for communication because of its advantages which are explained in this review paper. Applications of RoF are also described in this paper.
