Abstract

A wireless communication network architecture 100 is provided. The wireless communication network architecture consists of multiple fiber optic rings 110, 120, 130 and employs a Radio over Fiber (RoF) network. Each of these fiber optic rings is constructed using an optical fiber on a segment 105, 115, 125 formed by dividing a path. Each fiber optic ring includes a number of remote antenna units (RAUs) 181-184, 191-194. Each RAU 4 is integrated into a corresponding Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) 186-189, 196-199 and each ADM is further connected to a base station.
