Nowadays the technologies of communication are widely developing due to the huge requirements in the world, such as asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL), wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), and high definition television (HDTV). We are seeking for high performance and quality communication schemes. The scheme of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) catches everyone's eyes due to the advantages of the OFDM. Not only high bit rate in the long haul transmission but also reconfigurable network is the charming contention, and the penalties are reduced by the cyclic prefix which can reduce the inter-symbol interference (ISI). In this thesis, I will introduce the demand for optical fiber communications, then, interpret the motivation and the organizations in a nutshell. Next, the theoretical studies will be discussed, including mathematical formulations and basic theories of one tap equalizer, a cyclic prefix, a training symbol synchronization, and a discrete multitone (DMT) modulation. In addition, the experimental setups are successfully constructed and used for verifying the impact of one tap equalizer and the training symbol synchronization. Also, the performance of the systems are measured. Finally, the thesis is concluded.
