Abstract
This paper proposes a road-to-vehicle communication system based onfiber-radio extension link (FREx link). Since the proposedroad-to-vehicle communication system interconnects a cell controlstation with base stations by FREx link, optical fiber link noiseshould be taken into account to evaluate the system. This paperanalyzes the outage probability and frequency utilization efficiencyperformance of the fiber-radio road-to-vehicle communication systemwith macro-diversity. It also shows that the proposed system withmacro-diversity can improve performance, although it should bedesigned with the effect of optical fiber link noise in mind.
