Radio over Fiber (RoF) is a hybrid communication technology that integrates radio frequency (RF) transmission with optical fiber networks. The core principle involves modulating an RF signal onto an optical carrier, transmitting it via fiber, and then recovering the RF signal at the. RF over Fiber (RFoF) was developed to address the limitations of traditional coaxial cables in transmitting high-frequency RF signals over long distances with minimal signal loss and interference. Main technical advantages of using fiber optical links are lower transmission losses and reduced sensitivity to noise and. Radio over fiber transports RF signals via optical fiber, enabling low-loss distribution for wireless networks, radar systems, and radio astronomy applications.
