Optical and RF communication: complementary technologies for tomorrow’s networks
Section :
Aerospace and Defense
In this white paper, we will first review the complementary features of optical and radio telecommunications and the requirements driving operators to deploy hybrid networks. Then we will discuss the limitations caused by atmospheric turbulence and the compensation techniques of the Multi-Plane Light Conversion (MPLC) technology which improve link robustness.
Chapters include:
- Optics and RF: a technological benchmark
- Shifting to optical communication
