Adaptive optical post distortion linearization

Abstract: A technique to suppress optical nonlinearities is demonstrated using adaptive optical domain post distortion. The concept, rooted in electrical domain linearization, mitigates optical nonlinearities by generating sidebands that are equal but opposite in phase from the unwanted components. We model and experimentally demonstrate >20 dB extinction in four wave mixing by an adaptive phase controller and computer feedback loop.

“…To solve this problem, we propose an approach to tune and optimize the nonlinear optical transfer function of the kernel. While the nonlinear optical system parameters cannot be tuned, the nonlinear process can be effectively engineered by varying the phase of the input data [7]. This is based on the insight that most nonlinear interactions, such as self-phase modulation, four-wave mixing, etc are coherent processes that depend on the input phase.…”

“…Among them, particular attention was paid to the following linearization methods: 1) digital pre-distortion (DPD), which consists in applying a pre-distorted electrical signal to the EOC in order to reduce the degradation induced by the EOC+PIN nonlinearity [2], 2) feed forward compensation, where the nonlinearity is suppressed using a feedback loop comprising specific devices and it may be employed only in the optical domain, in the optical and electrical domain, and at the transmitter or at the receiver sides [3], 3) EOC linearized in the optical domain, where the structure used at the transmitter side for electro-optic conversion is designed to provide an extended linearized operation range. These optical transmitters can still be classified in two main groups: transmitters comprising only a single modulator or comprising multiple modulators.…”
