Summary: The arrival of 5G brings telecommunications engineers a set of challenges to solve. This new generation of mobile communications brings faster speeds, higher bandwidth, lower latency and superior quality of service when compared with 4G/LTE. This dissertation studies the update of the ORCIP testbed using analogue radio-over-fibre (RoF) transmission. For that, a study and characterisation of an optical link using a TOSA and a ROSA are made to replace the current structure based on low-cost SFP transceivers. A remote radio unit is developed containing a radio frequency frontend and the developed analogue optical link. This radio frequency frontend is designed for the N78 band of 5G FR1 in Portugal. The performance of the developed frontend is analysed in conjunction with the optical link using an actual 5G signal.

Esta nova geração de comunicações móveis traz mais velocidade, maior largura de banda, menor latência e uma qualidade de serviço superior, quando comparado com o 4G/LTE. Nesta dissertação será abordada a atualização da rede de acesso da infraestrutura ORCIP através do uso de transmissão analógica de rádio-sobre-fibra (RoF). Para isso será feito um estudo e uma caracterização de uma ligação ótica à base de um TOSA e um ROSA para substituir a estrutura atualmente implementada baseada em transceivers SFPs de baixo custo. Será também projetada uma unidade de rádio remota que contém um frontend de rádio frequência aliado à ligação ótica analógica previamente desenvolvida. Este frontend de rádio frequência é projetado para operar na banda N78 de 5G FR1, em Portugal. A performance do frontend desenvolvido será analisada em conjunto com a ligação ótica usando um sinal de 5G real.2022-04-19T14:27:38Z2021-11-29T00:00:00Z2021-11-29info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/33700engRenca, Filipe Miguel Diogoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-06T04:37:01Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/33700Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T14:14:23.957016Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
