The objective of this paper is to design a hybrid fiber wireless (Fi-Wi) access network. This has been achieved using PDM-RZ-DPSK transmission technique in the optical fiber network and Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) in the wireless access network. This is an attempt to improve the spectral efficiency and increase the end user data rate by using PDM. This technique minimizes the sensitivity to depolarization and shows reduced intersymbol interference as the eye diagram is clear and open. The transmitted and received data at the input and output of wireless channel is also coherent to each other showing minimal error. © Research India Publications.
