Optical Noise Tolerance in a Polarization-, Wavelength-, and Filter-Free All-Optical Clock Recovery System Based on a Monolithic Mode-Locked Laser

We experimentally investigated optical noise tolerance of a polarization-, wavelength-, and filter-free all-optical clock recovery system based on a monolithic mode-locked laser diode. The results showed that for input signal degradation, the jitter of the recovered clock did not degrade to approximately 8 dB/nm of the optical SNR. We also compared the clock recovery performance as functions of the wavelength and the modulation format (on-off keying and phase-shift keying) of the input data signals. We revealed that no significant changes were measured in the clock recovery performance despite such changes in the parameters of the input data signals, indicating that noise-tolerable clock recovery is expected, retaining the polarization- and the filter-free operations, regardless of the wavelength and the modulation format of the input data signals, by using our new scheme.     

Enhancement of clock component in a nonreturn-to-zero signal through beating process

For optical clock recovery of nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) signals of more than 40 Gb/s, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a simple clock recovery scheme through beating process between the carrier frequency component and one of the clock frequency components in modulated NRZ signals. The proposed scheme consists of a circulator, a variable optical attenuator (VOA), and two fiber Bragg grating (FBG) filters. With FBG filters and a VOA, the proposed scheme can equalize the amplitudes of two extracted frequency components for a maximum clock-to-noise ratio (CNR). Through this scheme, we have squared the adjustment range of the VOA and achieved an enhanced CNR of more than 15 dB before the receiver in experiment. Bit error rate (BER) curves for back-to-back and 80 km transmissions showed that BERs of less than 10⁻¹¹ can be obtained without error floors for both cases. We expect that the proposed scheme can operate as an efficient clock extraction system for high-speed optical communications.     

All-optical enhancement of clock and clock-to-data suppressionratio of NRZ data

A scheme for all-optical enhancement of clock and clock-to-data suppression ratio of nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) data based on self-phase modulation is proposed and demonstrated. More than 3-dB clock enhancement and 11-dB clock-to-data suppression ratio enhancement has been realized by a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and fiber Bragg grating (FBG) in reflection. Clock enhancement of more than 6 dB is possible using a FBG in transmission. Using this technique, all-optical clock recovery from NRZ data has been demonstrated     

Detailed Theoretical and Experimental Characterization of 10 Gb/s Clock Recovery Using a Q-Switched Self-Pulsating Laser

A detailed characterization of the clock recovery properties of a self-pulsating, three-section distributed feedback laser is presented by directly comparing simulation and experimental results for the dependence of the RMS timing jitter of the recovered clock signal on important properties of the input signal. These properties include the duty cycle, peak power, extinction ratio, state-of-polarization, optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR), and waveform distortion due to residual group velocity dispersion and polarization mode dispersion. The permissible range for each of these is identified in terms of the RMS timing jitter of the recovered clock signal being less than 2 ps. In particular, the self-pulsating laser is effective for input signals degraded by amplified spontaneous emission noise as it provides this level of jitter performance for input OSNRs larger than 8.8 dB (0.1 nm noise bandwidth).
