Abstract:
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel full-duplex mobile backhaul network based on fiber-wireless integrated MMW and FSO hybrid links using adaptive diversity combining technique. Performance improvements and enhanced reliability are validated under diverse weather conditions at 11.25-/8.4-Gb/s for down-/up-links.
