Abstract

Radio over free-space optics (RoFSO) communication system is useful for different applications where optical fibers are not possible, like in rural areas, to provide wireless services easily and more effectively. Radio over free-space optics framework is one of the developing advancements toward the 5G networks. With the consistent increase of data and media associations, radio frequency (RF) range has additionally expanded, and subsequently, there emerges a need to move from RF carrier to optical carrier. Additionally, the RoFSO innovation can be applied as an all-inclusive technology for both the fiber and free-space optical communication systems and in this manner stretching out broadband network to underserved regions. In this work, we characterize the performance of a millimeter waves RoFSO link considering different modulation techniques for 5G applications. Quality of received signal has been analyzed as function of transmission range, transmitted power, data rate, and beam divergence considering different modulation formats.
