Abstract
In this paper, the feasibility of the joint distribution of ultra-wideband
(UWB) and WIMAX wireless using polarization multiplexing as a coexistence
technique is proposed and experimentally demonstrated within the framework
of passive optical networks (PON). Four single- and orthogonal-polarization
multiplexing schemes are studied targeting to reduce the mutual interference
when UWB and WiMAX are distributed jointly through standard single-mode fiber
(SSMF) without transmission impairments compensation techniques and amplification.
Experimental results indicate successful transmission up to 25 km, in SSMF
exceeding the range in typical PON deployments. The radio link penalty introduced
by optical transmission is also investigated in this paper.
