不同调制格式的偏振模色散补偿性能分析

研究了不同调制格式的产生及其偏振模色散补偿性能。首先从实验上得到了不同调制格式的频谱和眼图,并将其输入偏振模色散补偿系统,实现了缓解与补偿的动态结合。其次,从数值上比较和分析了不同调制格式应用于以偏振度做反馈信号的偏振模色散补偿系统后的补偿性能,结果表明,差分相移键控对偏振度的响应度和偏振模色散补偿效果要比传统开关键控好,因此差分相移键控非常适合于以偏振度做反馈信号的偏振模色散补偿系统;而载波抑制码差分相移键控结合了载波抑制码载波抑制特性和差分相移键控的特殊频谱特性,具有最好的偏振模色散补偿效果。     

偏振度作为反馈信号进行偏振模色散补偿的研究

对40Gb／s光纤通信中归零码和非归零码光脉冲的偏振度随二阶偏振模色散的变化规律进行了数值模拟,结果表明由于二阶偏振模色散的影响,偏振度的变化趋势呈现出震荡性,二阶偏振模色散对归零码的偏振度要比非归零码的偏振度影响明显;同时搭建了偏振模色散补偿系统,对系统进行数值模拟和实验所得到的结果都表明,以偏振度作为反馈信号,采用粒子群优化算法作搜索算法能够有效地对归零码和非归零码系统的一阶及高阶偏振模色散进行自适应补偿。     

不同调制方式下偏振度与偏振模色散的关系

给出了偏振度与偏振模色散关系的理论模型,分析了非归零和归零两种调制方式下的偏振度与偏振模色散关系特性,结果表明偏振度町以作为实时检测偏振模色散的信号;且偏振度对偏振模色散的有效检测范围不大于调制光信号的占空比α,同时检测灵敏度与有效检测范围成反比;在非归零调制时偏振度对偏振模色散的有效检测范围最宽,为调制光信号的一个调制周期,是常规归零调制(占空比为0．5)时的2倍,但灵敏度只有常规归零调制时的一半。进一步探讨了在实际应用中改善偏振度对偏振模色散的有效检测范围和灵敏度的方法。实验验证了非归零调制时偏振度与偏振模色散关系特性。     

基于光信号偏振度的偏振模色散补偿系统的研究

偏振模色散已成为当前发展高速长距离光纤传输系统的主要限制因素。理论上分析了光纤一阶偏振膜色散效应对高速伪随机非归零码／归零码光信号偏振度的影响，并利用数值模拟的方法分析了信号不同输入偏振态以及高阶偏振膜色散效应对非归零码光信号偏振度的影响。最后对利用信号偏振度作为反馈控制信号的自适应偏振膜色散补偿系统的补偿性能进行了分析，大量统计分析结果表明对于10Gbit／s的非归零码光纤传输系统，当传输线路的平均偏振膜色散值小于43ps时，利用极大化输出信号偏振度的偏振膜色散补偿系统对信号眼图的补偿概率可以达到99．99％．     

偏振模色散动态补偿中色度色散影响的研究

分析了色度色散(CD)对偏振模色散(PMD)动态补偿中偏振度(DOP)反馈的影响,模拟和实验验证了2．5Gb／s和10Gb／s非归零调制系统中光信号偏振度特性和系统误码率特性。表明有色度色散作用时信号偏振度值比仅受偏振模色散作用时要大．但误码率随色度色散量增加先轻度好转后就逐渐变差．偏振度值将不能如实反映偏振模色散对系统性能的影响。且信号两正交偏振分量间能量差别越小或差分群延迟越大,上述两种情况下信号偏振度值偏离就越远。这种偏离还随系统速率和色度色散量的增加而加剧。进一步探讨了实际偏振模色散补偿中减轻色度色散影响的措施,表明当系统中同时存在偏振模色散和色度色散影响时,必须在基于偏振度反馈的偏振模色散补偿前完成色度色散补偿。

Generation of DQPSK format and its performance against polarization mode dispersion

We propose a novel transmitter and receiver for differential quadrature phase-shift keying （DQPSK） format. The impact of the first-order polarization mode dispersion （PMD） on systems using DQPSK with 100- Gb/s non-return-to-zero （NRZ） or return-to-zero （RZ） format is investigated. Through computing the eye openings of DQPSK formats under different PMD conditions, it is found that NRZ DQPSK, as compared with RZ DQPSK, incurs smaller eye opening due to PMD. Carrier-suppressed return-to-zero （CSRZ） DQPSK format has better tolerance than RZ DQPSK format to PMD for a given bit rate.     

Analysis of modulation format in the 40 Gbit/s optical communication system

Three different modulation formats including nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ), return-to-zero (RZ), carrier-suppressed return-to-zero (CS-RZ) and the differential phase keying (DPSK) modulation format of each code are introduced in the article. A method of their modulated signal generation with computer is described, and a comparison of their spectra and waveforms is made. The 40 Gbps signal transmitted in 200 km G.652 fiber by way of single channel with erbium-doped-fiber-amplifier (EDFA) is simulated for these three formats. The ability of anti-dispersion and anti-PMD is analyzed. It is shown that RZ and CS-RZ formats are more tolerant than NRZ format in the same conditions.     

Phase-erased wavelength/format conversion and demodulation of 40 Gbit/s DPSK assisted by periodically poled lithium niobate

We report a novel phase-erased demodulation of differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) by exploiting cascaded second-harmonic generation and difference-frequency generation (cSHG/DFG) in a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguide. Analytical solutions are derived to clearly describe the operation principle. The binary optical phase information carried by the conventional DPSK demodulation outputs is removed thanks to the cSHG/DFG in a PPLN waveguide. PPLN-assisted phase-erased wavelength conversion and demodulation of 40 Gbit/s non-return-to-zero DPSK (NRZ-DPSK), return-to-zero DPSK (RZ-DPSK), and carrier-suppressed return-to-zero DPSK (CSRZ-DPSK) are demonstrated in the experiment. Moreover, the accompanying all-optical format conversions from optical duobinary (ODB) to NRZ and from ODB/alternate-mark inversion (AMI) to RZ are also substantiated in the experiment. In addition, the calculated theoretical results including optical spectra, temporal waveforms, and phase diagrams also confirm the successful implementation of PPLN-assisted 40 Gbit/s NRZ-DPSK/RZ-DPSK/CSRZ-DPSK phase-erased wavelength conversion, demodulation, and ODB-to-NRZ and ODB/AMI-to-RZ format conversions.     

PMD effect on pulse shapes and power penalty in optical communication systems

We present an analytical expression relating the output state of polarization and the first-order polarization mode dispersion (PMD) vector in terms of the angle of precession of the output state of polarization around the PMD vector. We derive, incorporating for the first time this angle of precession, a general relation to study the effect of first-order PMD on pulses of arbitrary shapes, and expressions for pulse shape, pulse broadening and power penalty taking into account both PMD and chromatic dispersion. Measured experiment results are presented for NRZ, RZ, NRZ-DPSK, and RZ-DPSK modulation formats.     

Improvement of switching properties and cascadability of an ultra-fast reconfigurable optical crosspoint switch matrix using DPSK payloads

In this paper, we demonstrate mitigation of pattern-induced degradation in an optical crosspoint switch (OXS) matrix by utilizing differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulation format. We experimentally demonstrate 4 × 4 unicast optical packet switching and dynamic reconfiguration for 4-channel, 200 GHz spacing of RZ-DPSK payloads. Reconfigurable time as fast as 2 ns is achieved owing to the optimized control circuit and device fabrication. The power and wavelength dependence are obtained for the RZ-DPSK payload. We also investigate the cascadability of the OXS based on re-circulating loops. Due to the great suppression of the pattern effect in OXS, DPSK has shown dramatical improvement of switching properties compared to conventional ON-OFF keying (OOK) signal. The DPSK payload can outperform OOK for 3.2 dB after 9 hops optical switching.     

Proposal and simulation for all-optical format conversion between differential phase-shift keying signals based on cascaded second-order nonlinearities

We propose and simulate simple realizations of all-optical format conversion between differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) signals based on cascaded second-order nonlinearities in a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) waveguide. Four kinds of 40 Gb/s all-optical format conversion from non-return-to-zero differential phase-shift keying (NRZ-DPSK) to return-to-zero differential phase-shift keying (RZ-DPSK) are investigated based on cascaded second-harmonic generation and difference-frequency generation (cSHG/DFG) or cascaded sum- and difference-frequency generation (cSFG/DFG). The optical spectra, temporal waveforms, eye diagrams, constellation diagrams, and time-related phase distribution are analyzed, which indicate successful implementation of NRZ-DPSK-to-RZ-DPSK format conversion. The obtained results also confirm the phase preservation characteristic of PPLN.     

Multi-Channel NRZ/RZ-DPSK to CSRZ-DPSK Format Conversion Based on Nonlinear Polarization Rotation of SOA

We present an all-optical nonreturn-to-zero/return-to-zero(NRZ/RZ) to carrier-suppressed return-to-zero(CSRZ)format conversion scheme for differential phase-shift ke.ying(DPSK) signals. The conversion is based on nonlinear polarization rotation of a semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA). The 4-channel NRZ-DPSK or RZ-DPSK signals at 10 Gb/s are simultaneously converted to the corresponding CSRZ-DPSK signals, with-0.8 and 1.4 dB average power penalties, respectively. Additionall.y, high quality format conversion performanes are shown with the optical spectra and eye diagrams.     

Comparison of polarization-mode dispersion tolerances in polarization-multiplexing systems with different modulation formats

The polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) tolerance of 10 Gb/s polarization-multiplexing (PM) system is investigated. Using the importance sampling (IS) method, the outage probabilities of the PM systems with three modulation formats, including on-off keying (OOK), differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) and differential quadrature phase-shift keying (DQPSK), are quantified. When the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise is assumed to be dominant, we evaluate the optical power penalties caused by the PMD effect at bit error rate (BER) of 10⁻¹². The performance of compensated PM systems with variable optical delay line is also described. The simulation results indicate that the OOK signal with higher duty cycle (DC) performs better in the PM systems with PMD compensation. It is found that the higher-order PMD impairs seriously the performance of the PM system, and phase-keying formats are more sensitive to the PMD than the OOK.
