With the full commercial launching of 4G services, the research on 5G wireless technology is highly desired. However, the stringent requirements of large capacity, high efficiency and low cost will bring great challenges to the design of 5G system. In this project proposal, a novel method which could expand the capacity of 5G system based on high efficient and multi-dimensional radio over fiber (RoF) technology is proposed. Three scientific problems which include how to realize broadband optical-wireless transceiver at low costs, how to efficiently and multi-dimensionally increase the capacity of RoF system, and how to precisely equalize the fiber-wireless hybrid channels are comprehensively investigated from three layers which are modules, links and systems. In this project, a low-cost and broadband optical-wireless transceiver which could reduce the requirement of expensive external optical modulator and high linear optoelectronic devices will be studied and designed by using push-pull directly-modulated structure and DSP pre-compensation techniques. A high-efficient and multi-dimensional capacity expansion method which could realize high capacity 5G system by using sub-6GHz spectrum will be presented based on the orthogonal frequency division multiplex/offset QAM (OFDM/OQAM) multicarrier modulation technique and multi-core fiber (MCF) space division multiplexing technique. A high performance fiber-wireless hybrid channel estimation and compensation algorithm which could effectively enhance the inter-core crosstalk tolerance and support much more core number MCF and more remote radio nodes will be investigated. At last, a novel low-cost, high-capacity (10Gbps wireless access rate and 20km 19-core fiber), and bidirectional 8×8 MIMO 5G radio over fiber system will be proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Research results of this project can lay the foundation for sustainable development of 5G and Ultra-5G mobile communications.
