Nonlinear Effects of Radio over Fiber Transmission in Base Station Cooperation ...
Casal Ribeiro, Filipe; Guerreiro, João; Dinis, Rui; Cercas, Francisco; Silva, Adão; Pinto, ArmandoIn this paper we consider the uplink of Base Station (BS cooperation) systems, where each Mobile Terminal (MT) employs a Single-Carrier with Frequency-Domain Equalization (SC-FDE) modulation scheme. The combined signals at each BS are detected and/or separated by a Central Processing Unit (CPU) with Iterative Block Decision Feedback Equalization (IBDFE) receivers. We consider a Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) link betwe...
