Colorless FSK Demodulation and Detection With Integrated Fabry–Pérot-Type SOA/REAM
نویسندگان
چکیده
A receiver for optical frequency modulated signals, based on colorless demodulation and detection, is presented. An integrated combination of semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and reflective electroabsorption modulator (REAM) is designed to obtain a comb-like spectral detection function, replacing the typically required costly frequency discrimination filter. The spectral properties of the designed SOA/REAM chip are discussed and the reception of a 10-Gb/s optical frequency modulated downstream signal is demonstrated, proving the applicability as receiving optical subsystem in the customer premises equipment of fiber-to-thehome access networks with wavelength reuse for upstream transmission and no downstream crosstalk.

Colorless components for WDM-based optical access networks
This paper presents our work carried out in the colorless-component technologies for high bit-rate optical access networks, which are based on WDM-PON (wavelength division multiplexed passive optical networks). The colorless concept consists in using identical and wavelength-independent components that will act as the generic transmitter in WDM-PON systems. The transmitted wavelength is imposed...

The influence of temperature on coated (2%) and uncoated Fabry-Pérot laser output in a proposed colorless WDM system with self-seeding via modulation averaging reflector is studied. In particular, the connection between the information about the optical laser output from the laser integrated monitor photodetector and optical power output of the entire system with temperature change of the laser...
متن کاملUse of Fabry-Pérot lasers for simultaneous distributed strain and temperature sensing based on hybrid Raman and Brillouin scattering
In this paper we propose the use of multi-longitudinal mode lasers, such as Fabry-Pérot (FP) lasers, for simultaneous distributed strain and temperature sensing based on hybrid Brillouin and Raman scattering. Fabry-Pérot lasers allow for high-power Raman intensity measurement and the simultaneous detection of the Brillouin frequency shift parameter for all FP longitudinal modes, by using a self...
متن کاملEnhanced Modulation Bandwidth of a Fabry–Pérot Semiconductor Laser Subject to Light Injection From Another Fabry–Pérot Laser
Variations in optical spectrum and modulation bandwidth of a modulated Fabry–Pérot (FP) semiconductor laser subject to the external light injection from another FP Laser is investigated in this paper. Optimal wavelength matching conditions for two FP lasers are discussed. A series of experiments show that two FP lasers should have a central wavelength overlapping and a mode spacing difference o...
