A novel balance detection scheme for high-speed optical frequency-shift-keying (FSK) transmission was proposed. Fiber dispersion can be compensated by a balanced photodetector with an optical delay. 10 Gbit/s optical FSK transmission over a 130 km single mode fiber was demonstrated, where the FSK signal was generated by using a LiNbO 3 high-speed optical FSK modulator. Keywords: optical modulation, frequency shift keying, balanced detection, group delay Classification: Photonics devices, circuits, and systems
