A new Mode Partition Noise model for VCSEL-based optical links capturing RIN and MPN via a covariance matrix is proposed and experimental parameter extraction is performed. The model removes Ogawa-Agrawal model assumptions inappropriate for VCSELs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
