Large Signal Analysis of Mach-Zehnder Modulator Intensity Response in a Linear Dispersive Fiber
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two novel theoretical models that give the intensity of the optical signal generated by a Mach-Zehnder modulator through a dispersive medium are reported. These models include the chirp and dispersion factors and can be used for largesignals and for large values of the chirp parameters. Theoretical results are in good agreement with the simulation.

Performance Analysis of Mach-zehnder Modulator in Radio over Fiber Systems
Radio over Fiber (RoF) is a next generation wireless broadband Internet access technology. In Radio over Fiber system the radio signal is generated at the central station is modulated on to light and transmitted over optical fiber cable to various base stations. The base station has to convert the optical signal to an electrical signal, amplify and transmit it. Modulation of RF signal onto ligh...
متن کاملSimulation analysis of an improved optical triangular-shaped pulse train generator based on quadrupling RF modulation incorporating fiber dispersion-induced power fading
We report an improved approach to generate optical triangular-shaped pulse train using quadrupling RF modulation and fiber dispersion-induced power fading. In the proposal, quadrupling RF modulation (via a dual-parallel Mach–Zehnder modulator) is employed to generate four primary optical sidebands (±2nd and ±6th) in spectrum. Then a piece of single mode fiber is connected as the dispersive medi...
متن کاملCompensation of dispersion-induced power fading for highly linear radio-over-fiber link using carrier phase-shifted double sideband modulation.
A carrier phase-shifted (CPS) double sideband (DSB) modulation technique in radio-over-fiber (RoF) system is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. By tuning the biases in a single-drive dual parallel Mach-Zehnder modulator (SD-DPMZM), the optical carrier in the DSB spectrum acquires additional phase shift. The transmittance response of a dispersive RoF link is thus being controlled and shif...

We present and experimentally demonstrate a new method to generate optical carrier suppressed-differential phase-shift keying (OCSDPSK) modulation format in radio over fiber (RoF) systems. In our scheme, a single dual-parallel Mach-Zehnder modulator (DPMZM) is used to produce OCS-DPSK signal based on amplitude shift keying (ASK) to DPSK format conversion by suppressing the spectral tones of an ...
