“…To take into account the electro-optical characteristics of the EAM and its main nonlinearity, the measured ER is introduced in the model, using a symbolically defined device in ADS [19]. The relationship between the experimental ER and the reverse bias voltage V M is then modeled by a nonlinear function F NL and fitted by a rational function [23], as follows A k and B k are constant values extracted by interpolating the experimental ER ( V M ) curve using a polynomial equation solver as Matlab.…”

The great interest of optical fiber links in communicating systems especially in ultra-wide band (UWB) communications has grown up in the last decade and requires co-simulation for mixed circuits design exploiting both optical and microwave domains. In this paper, we report an original modeling method of an electro-absorption modulator associated with a distributed-feedback laser to simulate an optical transmitter of an UWB over fiber system. Large signal optoelectronic device models can be developed and implemented in a high-frequency simulator, such as advanced design system-Ptolemy to analyze the performances of fiber radio links and study the impact of the transmitter characteristics. This specific simulation way, taking into account precisely electrical characteristics of both electrical and optical circuits, links two different frequency domains by coupling electrical and optical modules in the same system simulator. Therefore, a complete simulation of an UWB multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing signal transmission over fiber with an external modulator is investigated.

“…Recent trends favoring electro-absorption modulator (EAM) because of their large bandwidth electrooptical conversion, size and ease of integration. Most drivers are external to the EAM [1]- [6]and because of this a matching resistor is required to eliminate multiple reflections. In this paper a method has been developed to double the voltage at EAM.…”

A method was developed to double the voltage at the input of an electro-absorption modulator (EAM) by directly mounting the EAM on the driver, without using a matching resistor. The driver circuit was a travelling wave HBT amplifier with a measured 3dB bandwidth of greater than 40GHz and a gain of 12dB. A simulated EAM optical output was shown for a 2.50 Volt 40Gb/s drive voltage. To my knowledge this is the first such driver/EAM circuit to use the voltage doubling method.
