The low power spectrum density of UWB signals restricts the transmission range to only few or tens of meters. One possible means to overcome this limitation is to use an optical link to distribute UWB signals over long distances.In this work, the transmission performance of UWB over optical link is investigated. The work consists of two main parts. The first part focuses on the transmission performance of UWB signals over existing fiber links and addresses the possibility of increasing the coverage area beyond 30 km. Then, the transmission performance of UWB over dense wavelength division...
