  • Patent number: 6634811
    Abstract: An optical link is described for transmission of an RF signal using an optical fiber having opposing ends and configured such that unwanted distortion signals are produced when optical signals pass through the optical fiber. At least first and second optical signals are transmitted through the optical fiber, where the optical signals have been modulated with an RF signal in such a way that a predetermined relationship is produced between the RF signals modulated on the first and second optical signals. At the opposing end of the optical fiber, a receiving arrangement receives the modulated first and second optical signals including the unwanted distortion signals produced during the transmission through the optical fiber. The receiving arrangement then regenerates the RF signal from the modulated first and second optical signals while causing the unwanted distortion signals to be canceled based on the predetermined relationship between the RF signals modulated on the first and second optical signals.
