“…Today, several companies offer connectivity at 1 Gb/s for in-home networks through a combination of a SI-POF backbone with room Wi-Fi access points [24] demonstrating that the convergence of radio and optical technologies is a good approach in domestic scenarios. Indeed, it is in the context of in-building and in-home networks where research on Radio over POF (RoPOF) technologies has been concentrated, showing the viability to carry multi-format signals using per-fluorinated POFs [12,25], and PMMA POFs [26][27][28]. It is precisely the on-going deployment of IoT in the smart homes to achieve home automation and remote control management what has raised the demand of network capacity and connectivity [29].…”

Over the last decade, the growing demand of connectivity has produced a rapid evolution of 5G technology to answer the requirements of relevant areas such as Internet of Things (IoT). Radio and optical technology convergence appears as a solution to fulfill the needs of the future networks, exploiting the high bandwidth-range of optical fibers with the ubiquity and mobility of radio communications. The concept of Radio-over-Fiber has usually been applied successfully using silica fibers to transmit light from a modulated laser to a photodetector for demanding applications. In this work, we propose to evaluate the performance of Polymer Optical Fiber (POF) links to carry RF signals for those applications where their limited bandwidthlength product is sufficient, while their fast and cost-effective deployment is paramount. In particular, we analyze the performance of the downlink transmission of Long Term Evolution (LTE) and guardband Narrow-Band Internet of Things (NB-IoT) signals through a 75-m Poly(methyl methacrylate) -PMMA Graded-Index POF. Our study considers a comprehensive set of LTE carrier frequencies and bandwidths.

In this paper, recent advancements in radio over plastic optical fibers are reviewed. Plastic fibers are used in short-range, high data rate communication systems and are considered to be consumer-friendly as they are simpler to install, easy to maintain and its associated components are inexpensive. A few of the challenges faced in employing plastic fibers are its high attenuation and modal dispersion, which limits the transmission range. However, plastic fibers are considered to be a low-cost alternative to be employed in short-range fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) networks as compared to the commonly known silica optical fiber. Advancement from 4G to 5G has paved a way for plastic fiber, which can be employed for simultaneous multi-format transmissions supporting 5G networks. In this paper, the evolution of multi-format transmission and its challenges are also discussed, along with the applications of plastic fibers in systems employing various techniques. Furthermore, the paper discusses the challenges and future prospects of radio over plastic fibers to guide a way for further research in this domain for improving the quality of transmission and linking it with other cutting-edge technologies such as machine learning and blockchain.
