Abstract
We have investigated the impact of fiber chromatic dispersion on the performance of OSSB+C and OCS for the transport of a 64 GHz RF carrier with 2.5 Gb/s data. The performance of OCS is limited by bit walk-off which limits the maximum transmission distance to ≪ 35 km while OSSB+C is limited by link budget and phase decorrelation which limits the transmission distance to 95 km.
