A comprehensive evaluation of Fi-Wi, enabling readers to design
links using channel estimation and equalization algorithms This book
provides a detailed study of radio over fiber (ROF) based wireless
communication systems, otherwise called fiber wireless (Fi-Wi)
systems. This is an emerging hot topic where the abundant bandwidth of
optical fiber is directly combined with the flexibility and mobility
of wireless networks to provide broadband connectivity. Its
application is increasing because of the growing demand for broadband
wireless services. In such a system the transmission of the radio
signals over a fiber is an important task. This book provides
substantial material on the radio over fiber part of the complete
fiber-wireless system, including new research results on the
compensation methods. The early chapters provide fundamental
knowledge required for a non-expert engineering professional as well
as senior/graduate level students to learn this topic from scratch.
The latter part of the book covers advanced topics useful for
researchers and senior students. Therefore, this book provides a
comprehensive understanding of the system for readers who will gain
enough knowledge to design Fi-Wi links of their own by learning how to
develop Fi-Wi channel estimation and equalization algorithms. This
concept is completely novel in current literature and has been
patented by the author. Readers are expected to have a basic
understanding of fiber optics and wireless communications to easily
follow the book and to appreciate the concepts. Basics of the Fi-Wi
system and signal processing approaches are clearly explained. It
covers a multidisciplinary topic and acts as a bridge between optical
and wireless communication domains. In the increasingly demanding
telecommunications profession, engineers are expected to have
knowledge in both optical and wireless communications and expected
design combined/hybrid systems. Hence, the book is written in such a
way that both optical and wireless professionals will be able to
easily understand and perceive the concepts. follows a logical
process from basic principles through to advanced topics, providing a
wide range of interest for researchers, practicing engineers,
students, and those required to build such networks explains detailed
system design concepts and the limitations and advantages in each
configuration, appealing to design engineers, and largely avoiding
system specifics demonstrates the author’s exclusive patent, showing
how to develop baseband signal processing algorithms for Fi-Wi
systems, which is a key requirement for the successful deployment of
Fi-Wi systems contains tables, numerical examples and case studies,
facilitating a good quantitative understanding of the topic
