چکیده

This paper presents a compact driver module for InP MachZehnder modulator (MZM). The size of the driver module is 14mm × 8mm × 2.8mm. We reduce the size of this driver module by integrating two channels for the driver IC, which doesn’t require any external bias tee, and by making the driver package small. With this driver module and InP MZM module mounted on evaluation board, we obtained a well separated 16-QAM constellation at the speed of 28Gbaud.

100G and 200G single carrier transmission over 2880 and 320 km using an InP IQ modulator and Stokes vector receiver.

We demonstrate experimentally the transmission of single carrier 56 Gbaud 16-QAM, 8-QAM and QPSK optically modulated signals over 320, 960 and 2,880 km, respectively, using a fully packaged InP IQ modulator and a Stokes vector direct detection (SV-DD) receiver realized using discrete optics. Results show that by optimizing the carrier-to-signal-power ratio, the total throughput-times-distance p...

40-Gbaud 16-QAM transmitter using tandem IQ modulators with binary driving electronic signals.

We propose a novel 16-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) transmitter based on two cascaded IQ modulators driven by four separate binary electrical signals. The proposed 16-QAM transmitter features scalable configuration and stable performance with simple bias-control. Generation of 16-QAM signals at 40 Gbaud is experimentally demonstrated for the first time and visualized with a high speed c...

Effects of phase noise of monolithic tunable laser on coherent communication systems.

We investigate the effects of different phase noise processes of SGDBR laser on coherent systems. The SGDBR device operated well with QPSK modulation at 5 Gbaud, while the performance of 16-QAM was significantly degraded due to excess noise. The white FM noise mainly defines the ultimate performance of coherent reception, but the low frequency excess noise can potentially degrade the performanc...

A family of Nyquist pulses for coherent optical communications.

A new family of Nyquist pulses for coherent optical single carrier systems is introduced and is shown to increase the nonlinearity tolerance of dual-polarization (DP)-QPSK and DP-16-QAM systems. Numerical investigations for a single-channel 28 Gbaud DP-16-QAM long-haul system without optical dispersion compensation indicate that the proposed pulse can increase the reach distance by 26% and 19%,...

Wavelength conversion of 28 GBaud 16-QAM signals based on four-wave mixing in a silicon nanowire.

We demonstrate error-free wavelength conversion of 28 GBaud 16-QAM single polarization (112 Gb/s) signals based on four-wave mixing in a dispersion engineered silicon nanowire (SNW). Wavelength conversion covering the entire C-band is achieved using a single pump. We characterize the performance of the wavelength converter subsystem through the electrical signal to noise ratio penalty as well a...
