Subcarrier multiplexing for high-speed optical transmission

Abstract: Abstract-The performance of high-speed digital fiber-optic transmission using subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) is investigated both analytically and numerically. In order to reduce the impact of fiber chromatic dispersion and increase bandwidth efficiency, optical single-sideband (OSSB) modulation was used. Because frequency spacing between adjacent subcarriers can be much narrower than in a conventional DWDM system, nonlinear crosstalk must be considered. Although chromatic dispersion is not a limiting factor in… Show more

“…Consequently, optical single side band (SSB) modulation is preferred as it eliminates dispersive fading [9] and achieves the higher tolerance to dispersion expected from SCM. SCM/SSB can be directly obtained without employing optical filters with dual-drive Mach Zehnder modulators (DD-MZM) [2] and with optical IQ modulators [10]. The optical modulators exhibit a nonlinear behaviour that produces intermodulation distortion (IMD) between the electrical subchannels.…”
