Gain-Flattened Optical Limiting Amplifier Modules for Wavelength Division Multiplexing Transmission

By integration of a bidirectional erbium-doped fiber amplifier and a three-port optical circulator with several fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs), two gain-flattened optical limiting amplifier (OLA) modules are proposed and experimentally demonstrated. They rely on the use of central wavelength misalignment and bending loss methods, respectively. They can effectively cover the whole useful 1.55-mum band. Both modules can provide gain-flattening characteristics over a large input dynamic range. The FBGs integrated OLA configuration has potential application in wavelength division multiplexing lightwave communication systems.     

Influence of the Laser Diode Nonlinearity in Fiber-Fed Microcellular Networks

In this paper, the use of an optical fiber-based fixed infrastructure for code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile networks is considered. One of the major problems associated with optical subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) is the nonlinearity of the laser diodes (LD). The LD is modeled by a memoryless nonlinearity, and the effect of the nonlinearity on the SCM transmission of CDMA signals is evaluated. The behavior departs significantly from what happens in frequency division multiple access (FDMA), and depends critically on the nonlinearity being compressing or expanding. In the former case, significant performance degradation may occur, whereas for the latter this is usually not dramatic. When compared against FDMA, the major advantage of CDMA comes from the tight power control function that must be built in such systems, which means that situations of a weak signal corrupted by strong signals do not occur, unlike what happens in FDMA.

A Wavelength and Bandwidth Assignment Algorithm to Support Guaranteed Bandwidth Levels in Hybrid Time Division Multiplexing/Wavelength Division Multiplexing Ethernet Passive Optical Networks

Abstract

A novel bandwidth assignment algorithm in wavelength division multiplexing Ethernet passive optical networks, called a dynamic wavelength assignment service level agreement, is proposed to efficiently provide subscriber differentiation. Simulation results show that the dynamic wavelength assignment service level agreement outperforms other bandwidth allocation algorithms in wavelength division multiplexing Ethernet passive optical networks, as it makes a fairer bandwidth distribution than other methods and is able to overcome the non-allowed packet fragmentation of the Ethernet passive optical network standard. Consequently, it greatly increases the achieved throughput and always ensures a minimum guaranteed bandwidth to every priority subscriber. Furthermore, the new algorithm obtains lower mean packet delay and packet loss rate for the highest priority subscribers when compared with other bandwidth distribution schemes in wavelength division multiplexing Ethernet passive optical networks.

Dynamic bandwidth allocation of both upstream and downstream in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Passive Optical Network

Recently, more and more attention has been paid to the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing Passive Optical Network (OFDM-PON). And more importance has been attached to the algorithm achieving dynamic bandwidth allocation (DBA) by researchers. In this paper, an algorithm which aims at achieving multi-granularity DBA based on OFDM-PON is proposed. With the change of bandwidth needs, the number of subcarriers and their modulation formats can be adjusted adaptively. To efficiently utilize the bandwidth, the algorithm introduces a scheme from TDM-PON based on cyclic rotation and polling mechanism. An inner ONU queue is also proposed and multiple subcarrier channels are established in both upstream and downstream. Both simulation and analysis show that the bandwidth utilization of OFDM-PON is efficient.     

Exploitation of the Fiber Capacity in Optical Networks Using Time,Frequency, and Space Division Multiple Accesses

In this work we investigate how to obtain very high capacity transmissions in optical networks taking into account the limitations due to the physical channel. We consider both the case in which all the users are connected by a star coupler and the case in which the users are directly connected by the network topology. As a reference, we consider a ring network and a Shuffle Multihop Network (SMN). The use of optical systems to implement high-capacity networks is numerically investi gated by means of numerical simulations taking into consideration the channel limitations due to the chromatic dispersion, the Kerr effect, and the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise of the optical amplifiers. In our model, we consider that the signal, during the routing process that is performed at the user position, undergoes only an attenuation. We suppose the use of intensity modulated signals and receivers with direct detection. Packet switching and digital transmission are assumed with soliton and conventional nonreturn to zero signals. Both wave length and time division multiple accesses are considered. The results show that, in the case of the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technique, the use of a star coupler to connect the users reduces the capacity of a network with respect to the case in which a direct connection of the users is used. This is due to the strong power fluctuations that are present during the signal propagation and to the large quantity of accumulated ASE noise. On the other hand, the use of a star coupler shows the advantage to being easily reconfigurable. The Wavelength Divison Multiple Access (WDMA) technique permits us to achieve higher capacities with respect to the TDMA. This is due to the fact that in the propagation conditions, due to the presence of a star coupler, high bit rate signals are strongly degraded. On the other hand, several low bit rate signals operating at different wavelengths can propagate with a low power level, avoiding strong degradation due to the Four Wave Mixing (FWM) effect. Among the topologies considered in this work, the SMN is the one that generally permits us to reach the highest throughput because in the SMN the signal hops in a limited number of Network Interface Units (NIUs) before reaching the final destination.     

波长转换器和光纤延迟线在WDM光分组交换中的结构设计和性能研究

介绍了两种新颖的光分组交换结构——MOD1和MOD2,用于解决分组冲突问题.其特点在于,MOD1共享了一组非简并的延迟线,而MOD2则是共享了一组简并的延迟线和波长转换器.研究表明,对于非突发业务,两种结构都只需要少量的延迟线即可获得理想的性能.此时,MOD1比MOD2更加能降低系统体积和成本.而对于突发业务,如果MOD1所共享的延迟线数量和MOD2所共享的延迟线和转换器的总数量相等,MOD2的分组丢弃率要远远低于MOD1.随着业务突发程度的增加,MOD2中的转换器数量也需要增加才能维持给定的分组丢弃率,但即使业务突发程度很高,MOD2在体积、成本和性能等三方面均可取得较理想的折衷.     

Experimental Electrically Reconfigurable Time-Domain Spectral Amplitude Encoding/Decoding in an Optical Code Division Multiple Access System

Abstract

An electrically reconfigurable time-domain spectral amplitude encoding/decoding scheme is proposed herein. The setup is based on the concept of temporally pulse shaping dual to spatial arrangements. The transmitter is based on a short pulse source and uses two conjugate dispersive fiber gratings and an electro-optic intensity modulator placed in between. Proof of concept results are shown for an optical pulse train operating at 1.25 Gbps using codes from the Hadamard family with a length of eight chips. The system is electrically reconfigurable, compatible with fiber systems, and permits scalability in the size of the codes by modifying only the modulator velocity.

Limitations Due to Er-Doped Optical Amplifier Noise and Stimulated Raman Scattering in Optic-Frequency Division Multiplexed Communications

In this paper, system limitations of an optic-frequency division multiplexed commu nication link are evaluated due to stimulated Raman scattering and noise in erbium-doped optical fiber amplifiers. It is shown that the product of the number of optical amplifiers and the gain (i.e., total gain) are limited by a factor that depends upon the number of channels, channel spacing and required signal-to-noise ratio (bit-error-rate), etc. Thus an indefinite increase in the number of amplifiers and or amplifier gain may not extend the repeaterless distance significantly while keeping the bit-error-rate above a minimum level. Numerical results show that appropriate choice of optical amplifier gain can improve the bit-error-rate of the worst effected channel without adding significant requirements on the receiver. However, large changes in the amplifier gain cannot be allowed if the receiver dynamic range is to be kept small.
