Abstract
The ever growing broadband internet applications have increased the traffic
capacity and demand for wide network coverage. Radio over fiber (ROF) is a combination
of Wireless as front end and Optical Fiber Communication as Back-haul networks. ROF
network provides mobility for users with high quality bandwidth and better geographical
access. In this paper, we analyze Q-factor, BER and eye patterns for various Modulation
schemes such as MSK, DPSK, OQPSK, CPFSK and Q-CPFSK (Quadrature) by means of
Bit-rate and fiber length. Our Simulation results shows that Q-CPFSK gives better
performance compared to other schemes at Optical Carrier Frequency of 193.1THz.
