Multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing based photonic access point

Abstract

Rapid increasing activity in Fiber To The Home (FTTH) deployment in Malaysia and general desired to eventually migrate to these systems inspire to the reduction in overall cost and components required to deploy FTTH. This paper proposed implementation of Multiple Input Multiple Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) in FTTH to provide higher capacity gain, high data rate, low complexity system and triple play service (voice, video and data). The complete MIMO OFDM based Photonic Access Point (PAP) system to accommodate Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) 802.11n standard was implemented in a two transmits and receives antenna using simulation with Optisystem software. Perfect constellation on each 64QAM points at receiver part and wide eye opening shows that the system is reliable for FTTH application.
