Abstract:In this paper, we propose a novel home area networks (HAN) architecture using MMW radio-over-plastic optical fiber (MMW/RoPOF) to provide high-speed wireless connections to end users. The proposed HAN can support bidirectional half-duplex communication between any pair of mobile stations (MSs) thanks to the use of analog network coding in optical domain implemented at a center station (CS). We analyze the performance of an end-to-end communication link between two MSs under the impact of major physical impairm… Show more
