The ever-increasing proliferation of mobile users and new technologies, and the demands
for ubiquitous connectivity, high data capacity, faster data speed, low latency, and reliable …

Self-homodyne detection (SHD) is a promising approach to realize high-capacity short-
reach optical transmission systems with low cost and low power consumption. We …

In this paper we consider a centralized radio access network (C-RAN) architecture with a
fully analog fronthaul link between remote radio heads (RRHs) and baseband units (BBUs) …

Data compression-assisted radio-over-fiber (RoF) is a candidate solution to improve
fronthaul (FH) bandwidth efficiency without losing cell-site simplicity for cloud/centralized …

As the introduction of the fifth generation of mobile services (5G) is set to revolutionize the
way people, devices and machines connect, the changes to the underlying networks and …

The ever-increasing proliferation of mobile users and new technologies with different
applications and features, and the demand for reliable high-speed high capacity, pervasive …

We experimentally investigate the compatibility to multiple (B) 5G formats of analog-to-digital-
compression radio-over-fiber (ADX-RoF) fronthaul, using a real-time ADX prototype. 16 …

The focus of this Thesis is on analog signal transport and processing for future mobile radio
access networks, and its content can be broadly divided into four macro-areas. Analog …
