To Employ Soa-Based Optical SSB Modulation Technique in Full-Duplex Rof Transport Systems

Abstract: Abstract-A full-duplex radio-over-fiber (ROF) transport system employing semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA)-based optical single sideband (SSB) modulation technique is proposed and demonstrated. For our proposed approach, it is relatively simple to implement as it requires only one SOA to generate optical SSB signal. Over an-80 km single-mode fiber (SMF) transmission, low bit error rate (BER), clear eye diagram, and low third-order intermodulation distortion to carrier ratio (IMD 3 /C) were achieved. Our pr… Show more

“…Radio-on-dense-wavelength-division-multiplexing (DWDM) transport systems, which combine the advantages of fiber optics and wireless radio communications, have been developed with high expectations for future communications that require broad bandwidth and high speed access [1][2][3][4][5]. As radio-on-DWDM penetrates into the optical network, more benefits like capacity upgrade and network flexibility can be achieved.…”

“…Given its important, multi-lateral role the AND gate has attracted intense research interest and among the technological options that exist for its implementation those that exploit a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) are well established [17]. In fact, besides being employed for classical applications such as signal generation [18], amplification [19] and modulation [20], SOAs have also demonstrated their potential as nonlinear switching elements for performing all-optical AND logic, either as stand-alone entities [21][22][23][24][25][26][27] or incorporated in an interferometric configuration [28][29][30][31][32].…”

“…Among the applications is the radio-over-fiber (RoF) system in which radio or wireless signals on a microwave subcarrier are transmitted through an optical carrier over optical fibers. Sharing the intrinsic merits of optical fibers, RoF systems have the advantages such as reduced size, weight, and cost, low attenuation, immunity to electromagnetic interference, low dispersion, and high data transfer capacity [6,7]. The original data to be transmitted from the central office is generally at the baseband or an intermediate frequency.…”
