An Optical-Electrical Sub-Sampling Receiver Employing Continuous-Time ∆Σ Modulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
An optical-electrical sub-sampling down-conversion receiver architecture leveraging low-jitter optical sampling is described. A simple interface between the optical and electrical domains is accomplished by combining a photodiode with a second-order continuous-time ∆Σ modulator. A prototype system implemented in 0.18 μm CMOS achieving 36.4 dB SNR in a 2 MHz BW with an OSR of 250 is demonstrated.

An Optical-Electrical Sub-Sampling Down-Conversion Receiver with Continuous-Time EA Modulation
This thesis describes the design and implementation of an optical-electrical subsampling down-conversion receiver that employs EA modulation. Accurate subsampling of an electrical RF signal in the optical domain is achieved by using a low-jitter mode-locked-laser and a high-bandwidth interferometer. The sub-sampled information is then digitized by an optical-electrical continuous-time (CT) EA a...

Artificial neural network (ANN) has application in communication engineering in diverse areas such as channel equalization, channel modeling, error control code because of its capability of nonlinear processing, adaptability, and parallel processing. On the other hand, wavelet transform (WT) with both the time and the frequency resolution provides the exact representation of signal in both doma...
متن کاملHigh-Speed Continuous-Time Subsampling Bandpass ∆Σ AD Modulator Architecture Employing Radio Frequency DAC
This paper proposes a continuous-time bandpass ∆ΣAD modulator architecture which performs high-accuracy AD conversion of high frequency analog signals and can be used for next-generation radio systems. We use an RF DAC inside the modulator to enable subsampling and also to make the SNDR of the continuous-time modulator insensitive to DAC sampling clock jitter. We have confirmed that this is the...

This paper presents the design of an image-reject continuous-time (CT) quadrature bandpass (QBP) ∆Σ modulator using a tailored signal-transfer-function (STF) design. The quadrature delta-sigma noise shaping with polyphase filter implementations and strategic IF placement effectively improve image rejection internally. The Fifth-order CT QBP ∆Σ modulator planned for WiMAX and Bluetooth standards...
متن کاملPerformance Analysis of Optical CDMA Systems Utilizing Optical Encoding in Presence of Interference and Receiver Noises
Abstract. In this paper, performance of incoherent and asynchronous optical CDMA (OCDMA) systems employing “optical encoding” is investigated and the results are compared with the results obtained when the encoding is performed in electrical domain. These investigations are performed for receiver structures that employ a single hard limiter (SHL), a double optical hard limiter (DHL) and also fo...
