NZDF Using OTDM and RZ-DPSK Format

چکیده
We demonstrate six-channel 160-Gb/s wavelength-division-multiplexed transmission over 20 100-km spans of nonzero-dispersion fiber, with a spectral efficiency of 0.53 b/s/Hz. We achieve this result using optical-time-division multiplexing with polarization bit interleaving and return-to-zero differential-phase-shift-keying modulation format. We also operate at 170.6 Gb/s per channel to emulate the use of forward error correction.

Time domain add-drop multiplexing for RZ-DPSK OTDM signals.
We show all-optical time domain add-drop multiplexing for a phase modulated OTDM signal for the first time, to our knowledge. The add-drop multiplexer is constructed of a Kerr shutter consisting of a 375 m long highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF), gamma=20 W(-1)km(-1). Successful time domain add-drop multiplexing is shown for 80 Gb/s RZ-DPSK OTDM signals with a 10 Gb/s base rate.
متن کاملGeneration of a 640 Gbit/s NRZ OTDM signal using a silicon microring resonator.
A 640 Gbit/s NRZ OTDM signal has been successfully generated for the first time by format conversion of a 640 Gbit/s OTDM signal from RZ to NRZ. First, a coherent 640 Gbit/s OTDM RZ signal is generated by wavelength conversion of the original incoherent OTDM signal utilizing Kerr switching in a highly nonlinear fiber. Second, RZ-to-NRZ format conversion is achieved in a specially designed silic...

Simultaneous RZ-OOK to NRZ-OOK and RZ-DPSK to NRZ-DPSK modulation format conversion in a single silicon microring resonator with free spectral range equal to twice the signal bit rate is experimentally demonstrated for the first time at 41.6 Gb/s. By utilizing an optimized custom-made microring resonator with high coupling coefficient followed by an optical bandpass filter with appropriate band...
متن کاملParametric amplification and phase preserving amplitude regeneration of a 640 Gbit/s RZ-DPSK signal.
We report the first experimental demonstration of parametric amplification and all-optical phase-preserving amplitude regeneration for a 640 Gbit/s return-to-zero (RZ) differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) optical time division multiplexed (OTDM) signal. In the designed gain-flattened single-pump fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA), 620 fs short optical pulses are successfully amplified ...
متن کاملCoding Gain of FEC Encoded 21.42Gb/s RZ-DQPSK Using an Electrical Differential Quaternary Precoder
We report a measured gross coding gain of 6.8dB for 21.42Gb/s RZ-DQPSK using standard FEC in combination with differential precoding. Furthermore we show that RZ-DQPSK has approximately a 2dB higher FEC coding gain than RZ-DPSK. Introduction Recently the return to zero optical differential quadrature phase shift keying (RZ-DQPSK) modulation format attracted attention because of its advantageous...
