Abstract: NICT in Japan has developed a radio frequency (RF) dissemination system using an optical fiber link. The phase noise induced during the transmission through the optical fiber is actively cancelled by a compensation system. A proving test has been conducted on the 114-km urban telecom optical fiber link in Tokyo. The transfer stability in the 10-18 level at an averaging time of 1 day was achieved.
