Single-Sideband OFDM Transmission via a Silicon Microring IQ Modulator

Abstract: We experimentally demonstrate the generation of a single-sideband orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signal using an on-chip silicon photonics microringbased IQ modulator. Over 18 dB sideband suppression ratio is achieved for the wideband OFDM: 15.7 GHz data band and 2.7 GHz guard band. The 31.4 Gb/s signal was transmitted over 20 km of standard single-mode fiber with a bit error rate below the forward error correction threshold. While single-sideband continuous-wave signals have been produced wi… Show more

“…We can efficiently combat chromatic-dispersion-induced power fading with SSB. To this end, two signals of a Hilberttransform pair drive the modulators in the I and Q branches [24]. We demonstrate experimentally that our SSB modulation is effective for different fiber lengths.…”

“…Their combination with optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), more specifically its single-sideband variant (SSB-OFDM) that makes use of inexpensive direct detection (DD) receivers, and offers tailored spectral loading, high spectral efficiency and increased reach due to its immunity to fiber dispersion [10][11][12][13][14][15], can substantially improve the aggregate throughput of the system. Sinusoidal modulation [16] as well as single channel data transmission [17] have both been demonstrated using RRM assisted SSB-OFDM modulators in Si photonics (SiP) technology, employing laboratory-grade, narrow linewidth optical sources.…”
