Millimeter over Fiber (MMoF) technique modulates millimeter wave signal optically to transmit it through an optical fiber for long distances with small loss. MMoF system usually uses optical single sideband (OSSB) modulation scheme to reduce fiber chromatic dispersion and obtain high bandwidth efficiency. The optical link of MMoF system using OSSB is treated as a nonlinear amplifier, and the AM/AM characteristic function of the amplifier is a Bessel function of the first kind of order 1. In this paper, we investigate the performance of OFDM MMoF system considering nonlinearity of OSSB modulation. We estimate a power of the nonlinear distortion noise to analyze the theoretical bit error rate(BER), and perform a simulation to verify the theoretical BER.

본 논문은 MMoF 시스템의 광학채널을 비선형 채널로 가정하고, 단일 반송파 전송 기법을 사용한 경우와 다중 반송파 전송 기법을 사용한 경우의 성능을 모의실험을 통하여 비교하였다. 이때 다중 반송파를 사용하는 MMoF-OFDM 시스템의 성능이 단일반송파를 이용하는 MMoF 시스템에 비해 우수함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 다중 반송파를 사용하는 경우 PAPR을 개선하기 위하여 PTS 기법을 사용하면 PAPR을 낮출 수는 있었지만 시스템의 성능엔 큰 차이가 없었다.

Error performance of two modulation schemes of millimeter-wave over fiber (MMoF) system i.e., optical double side band (ODSB) and optical single side band (OSSB) modulations is analyzed under Rician fading. Bit error rates (BER) of two detection techniques i.e., coherent and noncoherent detection are also compared in Rician fading. In aspect of error performance, ODSB modulation scheme has better BER than OSSB modulation scheme has under Rician fading. On the other hand, OSSB modulation scheme is advantageous in case of considering high bandwidth efficiency and small power degradation. Coherent detection technique is proper in Rician fading, because coherent detection provides more SNR gain whether fading is serious or not. Noncoherent detection can be applied when we need a simple receiver structure.
