Theoretical analysis and experimental verification of a cost-effective chromatic dispersion monitoring method in a 40-Gb/s optical fiber communication system

A cost-effective technique for in-service chromatic dispersion monitoring in a 40-Gb/s optical communication system is proposed. Microwave devices are adopted to detect the electrical power of a specific frequency band. A simplified theoretical model is proposed and discussed focusing on the relationship between electrical power and chromatic dispersion at different frequency bands. The dynamic monitoring of chromatic dispersion is achieved using devices such as PIN detector, microwave amplifier, narrow-band microwave filter, and electrical power detector. The maximum detectable chromatic dispersion is 130 ps/nm and a resolution of 5.2 ps/nm/dB has been achieved in the frequency band centered at 12 GHz.     

Fiber-based optical parametric amplifier for 40-Gb/s NRZ-DPSK signal transmission system employing QC-LDPC codes

In this letter, we investigate quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check （QC-LDPC） codes in a 40-Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero differential phase-shift keying （NRZ-DPSK） signal transmission system based on a fiber- based optical parametric amplifier （FOPA）. A constructed algorithm of QC-LDPC codes according to the optimizing set of shift vMues on the circulant permutation matrix （CPM） of the basis matrix is proposed. Simulation results prove that the coding gain in the encoded system can be realized at 10.2 dB under QC- LDPC codes with a code rate of 5/6 when the bit error rate （BER） is 10-9. In addition, the error-floor level originating from the uncoded system is suppressed.

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of 40 Gb/s duobianry optical transmitter for different scattering section dispersion and polarization-mode dispersion coefficient of single mode fiber. We observe that the variable scattering section dispersion considerably improves the performance of duobinary optical system as compared to fixed scattering section dispersion where the Q value fluctuates over wide frequency range. Also, duobinary system observes pulse delay of 7 ps for the fixed scattering section dispersion while there is no delay in the received output signal if variable scattering section dispersion is considered.     

A PMD-supported 100-Gb/s optical frequency-domain IM-DD transmission system

A novel method for distortion-free optical pulse transmission is theoretically proposed and simulated, in which two time lenses formed by dispersion fibers and quadratic phase modulations are utilized. One is used as an optical inverse Fourier transformation （OIFT） device to transform the initial time-domain data to frequency-domain one at the transmitter and the other as an optical Fourier transformation （OFT） device to recover the data at the receiver. By using the unchanged spectral envelope in linear optical fiber communication, the initial data can be recovered. Through simulations, a 10× 100 Gb/s intensity-modulated direct-detection （IM-DD） dense wavelength division multiplexing （DWDM） system over 20000 km transmission without the compensation for polarization mode dispersion （PMD） and dispersion slope is achieved, which can be used to upgrade the current 100Gb/s IM-DD system to a 100-Gb/s one directly.

Design of adaptive dispersion compensation and demodulation system for 40 Gbps RZ-DQPSK optical fiber communication receivers

An adaptive terminal dispersion compensation and demodulation scheme based on dual-feedback strategy for 40 Gbps return-to-zero differential quaternary phase shift keying (RZ-DQPSK) fiber communication receivers is proposed to achieve high reliability receiving performances. In the receiving system introduced in this paper we utilize both the balanced receiver feedback and framer error rate to achieve accurate RZ-DQPSK optical signal demodulation and adaptive dispersion compensation. Compared to traditional RZ-DQPSK receivers, the proposed design combines the chromatic dispersion (CD) compensation and Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) adjusting and automatically estimates the dispersion compensation parameters without human intervention. And another improvement is introducing the framer error rate as feedback quantity to ensure the accuracy of CD and MZI adjusting. Finally, we present the performance of the designed receiver by showing the simulations and experiment results in actual telecommunication engineering projects.
