基于单边带调制单载波频域均衡技术的研究

单载波频域均衡技术在无线通信中是极为成熟且研究广泛的信道均衡及补偿技术,该技术采用高速数字信号处理将电信号从时域变换到频域进行均衡补偿。在光纤通信系统中,提出采用单载波频域均衡技术对接收信号进行电域色散补偿,在10 Gb/s的单边带幅移键控(ASK)调制光信号经过50,80和100 km普通单模光纤传输之后,验证了频域均衡对色散补偿的效果。其中单边带ASK调制光信号基于有限冲击响应希尔伯特变换,利用一个双臂马赫-曾德尔(MZ)调制器级联一个相位调制器来产生。结果证明,频域均衡模型能有效提高眼图开启度和降低时钟抖动,随着传输距离的增加,改善效果更加显著。最后在分析系统均衡和补偿效果参数的基础上,得出了实现最佳频域均衡效果的单边带调制点。

Design of millimeter-wave fiber-wireless downlink with remote local-oscillator delivery by using dual-electrode Mach-Zehnder modulators configured for optical single-sideband modulations

An optical fiber-wireless system operating in millimeter-wave (MMW) bands may include numerous optical remote access points (RAPs) of which the cost is critical to implement such systems in real market. In this paper, we design an optical fiber communication system for MMW optical fiber downlink transmission with remote MMW local-oscillator (LO) delivery for intermediate frequency (IF) fiber uplink transmission. The new design is based on two dual-electrode Mach-Zehnder modulators in parallel both configured for optical single-sideband modulations. By using the proposed design, a conventional RAP can be simplified in structure to reduce the cost. Our numerical results show that, with the proposed design, 1-Gbit/s binary-phase-shift-keying (BPSK) data at a 42-GHz sub-carrier frequency can be transmitted over a 20-km standard single-mode optical fiber followed by a wireless transmission of several kilometers. Moreover, a MMW LO at 37-GHz frequency can be remotely delivered over tens of kilometers of a standard single-mode fiber with acceptable deterioration in the LO phase noise for IF uplink fiber transmission.     

Microwave photonic filter with a continuously tunable central frequency using an SOI high-Q microdisk resonator

Utilizing a high-Q microdisk resonator(MDR) on a single silicon-on-insulator(SOI) chip, a compact microwave photonic filter(MPF) with a continuously tunable central frequency is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. Assisted by the optical single side-band(OSSB) modulation, the optical frequency response of the MDR is mapped to the microwave frequency response to form an MPF with a continuously tunable central frequency and a narrow 3-dB bandwidth. In the experiment, using an MDR with a compact size of 20×20 μm2and a high Q factor of 1.07×105, we obtain a compact MPF with a high rejection ratio of about 40 dB, a 3-dB bandwidth of about 2 GHz, and a frequency tuning range larger than12 GHz. Our approach may allow the implementation of very compact, low-cost, low-consumption, and integrated notch MPF in a silicon chip.     

Performance Improvement of Optical Single Sideband Signal Using an Integrated Mach-Zehnder Modulator

Abstract

A novel integrated Mach-Zehnder modulator consisting of three phase modulators to generate an optical single sideband with carrier signals in the radio-over-fiber system has been proposed. By adjusting the direct current voltage applied in the modulation arm, named the “direct current arm,” the power of the optical carrier in the optical single sideband signal is controllable, and the optimal carrier-to-sideband ratio of 0 dB can be achieved for any modulation index. The simulation results show that the receiver sensitivity can be greatly improved, and the radio-over-fiber system based on the proposed technique has better robustness.

Optical properties of chiral photonic crystals with graded modulation parameters

The oblique transmission of light through a layer of a chiral photonic crystal with graded modulated parameters is considered. The problem is solved by the Ambartsumian’s layer addition method. Dependences of amplitude characteristics on the wavelength at different incident angels are presented for two cases: namely, for the case of a chiral photonic crystal with a linearly varied spatial period of modulation and in the case of a chiral photonic crystal with a linearly varied spatial depth of modulation. The case of a minimal influence of dielectric boundaries is considered. It is shown that in both cases a broadening of the photonic forbidden band gap takes place.     

High carrier suppression double sideband modulation using polarization state rotation filter and optical external modulator

We propose a high carrier suppression double sideband modulation technique using a Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) and an integrated polarization state rotation filter (PSRF), which is designed to improve the carrier suppression ratio. With the functions of MZM and PSRF, about 30 dB carrier suppression ratio relative to first-order sidebands is demonstrated. Moreover, we demonstrate the optical generation of microwave/millimeter-wave signals by beating the carrier suppressed double sideband (DSB-SC) lightwave signals. The experimental results show that the improvement of carrier suppression ratio with PSRF can effectively cancel the modulating RF frequency component. A tunable and high purity microwave signal, which is limited by the bandwidth of MZM and photodetector (PD), is obtained, and it does not suffer from obvious phase noise degradation with 25 km transmission.

Numerical investigation on photonic microwave generation by a sole excited-state emitting quantum dot laser with optical injection and optical feedback

Based on three-level exciton model, the enhanced photonic microwave signal generation by using a sole excited-state(ES) emitting quantum dot(QD) laser under both optical injection and optical feedback is numerically studied. Within the range of period-one(P1) dynamics caused by the optical injection, the variations of microwave frequency and microwave intensity with the parameters of frequency detuning and injection strength are demonstrated. It is found that the microwave frequency can be continuously tuned by adjusting the injection parameters, and the microwave intensity can be enhanced by changing the injection strength. Moreover, considering that the generated microwave has a wide linewidth, an optical feedback loop is further employed to compress the linewidth, and the effect of feedback parameters on the linewidth is investigated. It is found that with the increase of feedback strength or delay time, the linewidth is evidently decreased due to the locking effect. However, for the relatively large feedback strength or delay time, the linewidth compression effect becomes worse due to the gradually destroyed P1 dynamics. Besides, through optimizing the feedback parameters, the linewidth can be reduced by up to more than one order of magnitude for different microwave frequencies.
