Enhancement of chaotic carrier bandwidth in laser diode transmitter utilizing external light injection

Semiconductor laser with optical feedback emitting chaotic optical signal can be treated as chaotic carrier transmitter. Based on laser rate equations, we numerically study the effect of external injection light on the bandwidth of chaotic carrier transmitter. Our numerical simulation shows that the bandwidth of the chaotic carrier transmitter can be enhanced significantly by external photons injection. Compared with the 2 GHz relaxation oscillation frequency of a solitary laser diode without optical injection, the bandwidth of a chaotic carrier transmitter is expanded to 14.5 GHz with injection parameter at k_inj = 0.39. Simulation results also demonstrate that the enhanced bandwidth depends obviously on the frequency detuning between the external injection laser diode and the chaotic carrier transmitter. The maximum bandwidth of the chaotic transmitter can be obtained when the frequency of the injected light is higher than the central frequency of the carrier transmitter between 2 GHz and 4 GHz.

Message filtering characteristics of semiconductor laser as receiver in optical chaos communication

The message filtering characteristics of the receiver in closed-loop chaotic optical communication system are numerically studied based on laser rate equations. A pair of external cavity semiconductor lasers was employed as the chaotic carrier transmitter and the synchronized chaos receiver. We examined the filtering properties of the semiconductor laser receiver for message encoded with chaos masking. Our results demonstrate that, the lower the message frequency, the more easily the receiver filters out the message from chaotic carrier. We also analyzed the effects of each parameter mismatches between the transmitter and the receiver on the quality of the recovered message. Comparing the synchronization quality with the signal-to-noise ratio affected by parameter mismatches, we find that the quality of the recovered message depends not only on the synchronization quality but also on the filtering characteristics of the receiver. The filtering characteristics of receiver will be playing an important role on the quality of the recovered message in the case of large mismatches.     

Investigation of a Unified Chaotic System and Its Synchronization by Simulations*

We investigate a unified chaotic system and its synchronization including feedback synchronization and adaptive synchronization by numerical simulations. We propose a new dynamical quantity denoted by K, which connects adaptive synchronization and feedback synchronization, to analyze synchronization schemes. We find that K can estimate the smallest coupling strength for a unified chaotic system whether it is complete feedback or one-sided feedback. Based on the previous work, we also give a new dynamical method to compute the leading Lyapunov exponent.     

Generation and synchronization of feedback-induced chaos in semiconductor ring lasers by injection-locking

A smart scheme for chaotic signal generation in a semiconductor ring laser (SRL) with optical feedback is proposed and investigated numerically. The chaotic oscillation in the SRL can be generated by the partial reflection of the laser output. Time series, attracter and the power spectrum, as well as the Lyapunov exponent spectrum, are calculated and analyzed. We also study the synchronization scheme of feedback-induced chaos in SRLs by optical injection that consists of a drive SRL with optical feedback and a response SRL with optical injection from the drive laser. High-quality synchronization is achieved with suitable injection strength and detuning frequency between the drive and the response SRLs.

Synchronization of chaos in unidirectionally and bidirectionally coupled multiple time delay laser diodes with electro-optical feedback

We report on chaos synchronization in both unidirectionally and bidirectionally coupled multiple time delay laser diodes with electro-optical feedback. We derive existence and sufficient stability conditions for the synchronization regimes. We calculate the Lyapunov exponents, information dimension, and Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy for a single and double delay time lasers to demonstrate that multiple time delay laser system can offer higher complexity than a single time delay laser. We demonstrate that in coupled multiple time delay lasers additional feedback(s) can play a stabilizing role. We compare the synchronization quality for closed loop and open loop receiver laser configurations and find better synchronization quality for partially open loop receiver (when the receiver laser has only one feedback loop), than the open loop receiver configuration (when the receiver contains no feedback loops). We also study the effect of the feedback phase on the correlation coefficient between the interacting laser systems. Analytical results are fully supported by numerical simulations.

We propose and demonstrate a method to generate ultrawideband (UWB) signals in the optical domain based on the chaotic dynamics of an optically injected semiconductor laser with optical feedback. The chaotic-UWB pulses with a fractional bandwidth of 116% and central frequency of 6.88?GHz are experimentally generated by controlling the injection strength and frequency detuning of the chaotic laser. The spectrum of the UWB signals is in full compliance with the Federal Communications Commission spectral mask, and the experimental results are qualitatively consistent with the simulated results.     

Synchronization and control of chaos in coupled chaotic multimode Nd:YAG lasers

In this Letter we numerically investigate the dynamics of a system of two coupled chaotic multimode Nd:YAG lasers with two mode and three mode outputs. Unidirectional and bidirectional coupling schemes are adopted; intensity time series plots, phase space plots and synchronization plots are used for studying the dynamics. Quality of synchronization is measured using correlation index plots. It is found that for laser with two mode output bidirectional direct coupling scheme is found to be effective in achieving complete synchronization, control of chaos and amplification in output intensity. For laser with three mode output, bidirectional difference coupling scheme gives much better chaotic synchronization as compared to unidirectional difference coupling but at the cost of higher coupling strength. We also conclude that the coupling scheme and system properties play an important role in determining the type of synchronization exhibited by the system.     

Adaptive lag synchronization in unknown stochastic chaotic neural networks with discrete and distributed time-varying delays

In this Letter, we have dealt with the problem of lag synchronization and parameter identification for a class of chaotic neural networks with stochastic perturbation, which involve both the discrete and distributed time-varying delays. By the adaptive feedback technique, several sufficient conditions have been derived to ensure the synchronization of stochastic chaotic neural networks. Moreover, all the connection weight matrices can be estimated while the lag synchronization is achieved in mean square at the same time. The corresponding simulation results are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Enhancing the relaxation oscillation frequency of a chaotic semiconductor laser transmitter using optical dual-feedback light

A method to enhance the relaxation oscillation frequency and carrier bandwidth of a delayed feedback semiconductor laser transmitter is presented using additive optical feedback light. A formula for frequency detuning of the optical dual-feedback is developed to demonstrate that frequency detuning is added with the additive optical feedback light level. The function of the relaxation oscillation frequency of the chaotic laser is theoretically determined to show that it can be broadened by including the delay time and feedback level. Numerical results demonstrate that the bandwidth with the additive optical feedback light can be enhanced 1.7 times more than the bandwidth without it and the relaxation oscillation frequency of the chaotic laser is increased to 1.8 times more than that of the laser without it. The current can enhance the relaxation oscillation frequency and bandwidth of the transmitter more efficiently.

Experimental investigation of the impact of optical injection on vital parameters of a gain-switched pulse source

An analysis of optical injection on a gain-switched distributed feedback (DFB) laser and its impact on pulse parameters that influence the performance of the pulse source in high-speed optical communication systems is presented in this paper. A range of 10 GHz in detuning and 5 dB in injected power has been experimentally identified to attain pulses, from an optically injected gain-switched DFB laser, with durations below 10 ps and pedestal suppression higher than 35 dB. These pulse features are associated with a side mode suppression ratio of about 30 dB and a timing jitter of less than 1 ps. This demonstrates the feasibility of using optical injection in conjunction with appropriate pulse compression schemes for developing an optimized and cost-efficient pulse source, based on a gain-switched DFB laser, for high-speed photonic systems.
