Summary:

The use of [iber-optic links as the connecting media in wireless multicellular networks can be provide uniform radic coverage to spatially distributed mobile users in cost effective manner. This paper investigates theoretically the performance of fiber distribution system for mobile phone networks that uses a single high power Nd:YAG laser in the base station and shared by many microceils. Analytical expressions are dezived. for the bit-error-rate (BER) floor characteristics and optimum operating conditions, The results indicate clearly that the laser power can be reduced significantly when the modulation index is optimized.
