基于10 Gb/s传输链路的40 Gb/s光传输实验研究

基于中国自然科学基金网(NSFCNet)的400 km×10 Gb/s光传输链路实现了40 Gb/s光传输,没有出现误码率(BER)平台,说明在常规的中短距离10 Gb/s系统可以直接升级至40 Gb/s系统,而不需要升级传输链路。但是,由于相对10 Gb/s系统而言40 Gb/s系统的色散容限非常小,在升级时必须精确补偿原有链路的色散,在接收机前一般需要加可调色散补偿单元。同时,还分析了光纤注入功率对系统性能的影响,结果表明在设计这种由10 Gb/s向40 Gb/s升级的系统时,不仅要考虑信号带宽增加带来信噪比要求的提高,而且必须充分考虑光纤非线性的影响。     

Transmission of 112 Gb/s dual-carrier DQPSK signal over 10 Gb/s-based WDM optical links

The 112 Gb/s dual-carrier differential quadrature phase shift keying (DC-DQPSK) optical transceiver, which does not need digital signal processing and coherent detection, is proposed for cost-effective 100G transport solution. In this paper, we describe upgrade schemes of 10 Gb/s-based WDM optical links by adopting 112 Gb/s DC-DQPSK transceiver, while the dispersion of the optical links is compensated 100% at each span. Method of introducing the DC-DQPSK signal into single grid of 100 GHz spaced WDM link is demonstrated. Performance sufficient for error-free operation after forward error correction is achieved over 640 km standard single mode fiber (SSMF) link. In another method, we experimentally investigate the transmission performance with co-propagating 10.7 Gb/s on-off-keying (OOK) signals over 1000 km of SSMF when the dual carriers occupy two channel grids separately. Excellent tolerance to the nonlinearities impacted by the OOK signals and low optical signal-to-noise ratio requirement are verified to demonstrate superior transmission performance in 10 Gb/s-based WDM links.     

中国移动对于100-Gb/s WDM系统的需求和策略

In recent years, the booming bandwidth demands of dedicated mobile services have driven the rapid development of optical transport networks (OTNs). Through the in-novative use of emerging coherent optical communication technology and the advancement of microelectronics technology, the new-generation 100Gb/s transport technology offers a high line rate and unprecedented resilience to optical transmission impairments. This paper overviews the bandwidth demands of China Mobile driven by the upcoming rollout of Time Division-Long Term Evolution (TD-LTE) and presents the 100Gb/s trials at China Mobile that were used to verify the performance of a 100Gb/s system. China Mobile’s considerations, which were based on the trial results, regarding the deployment of 100Gb/s transport systems are introduced, and the requirements of China Mobile for the evolution of 100Gb/s transport systems are summarized.     

4$,times,$25 Gb/s Frequency-Modulated DBR Laser Array for 100-GbE 40-km Reach Application

A monolithically integrated 100-Gb/s throughput (4 $,times,$25 Gb/s) laser array has been developed that employs frequency-modulated distributed Bragg reflector lasers. An optical filter converts a frequency-modulated signal to an amplitude-modulated signal with a high contrast ratio in addition to reducing the lasing spectrum bandwidth. A clear eye opening after 40-km transmission was observed with a 25-Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero signal in the 1550-nm region.      

Wavelength shift keying modulation up to 35 Gb/s with wavelength tone reuse to multiplex two 40 Gb/s DPSK signals

Fast optical frequency shift keying or wavelength shift keying (WSK) modulation offers advantageous features for applications in long haul communications and in optical labeling for packet routing. This includes simple demodulation by optical filtering and constant amplitude envelope providing tolerance to fiber nonlinear effects during transmission. In this paper we report on the generation of WSK signals up to 35 Gb/s with reuse of the wavelength tones for polarization multiplexing two independent 40 Gb/s DPSK signals. Transmission over a 50 km fiber link of the resultant three channel signal is also reported.     

10-Gb/s, 4-channel wavelength division multiplexing fibertransmission using semiconductor optical amplifier modules

A dense wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) transmission system with very-high-speed channels was investigated experimentally. A 10-Gb/s four-channel WDM optical transmission (total capacity of 40 Gb/s) over a 40-km dispersion-shifted fiber was achieved by using hybrid-integrated DFB-LD/driver modules for transmitters and two cascaded semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) modules for receivers. The experiment confirmed that the SOA is applicable for WDM transmission systems with high bit rates because of its inherent wide bandwidth. The transmission capacity of 40 Gb/s, achieved using an intensity modulation/direct detection (IM/DD) scheme, is the highest ever reported. This technology will make possible ultralarge capacity (up to several-hundred gigabits per second) and long-haul transmission systems in the future     

Signal generation and transmission at 40, 80, and 160 Gb/s using a fiber-optical parametric pulse source

Short return-to-zero pulses (/spl sim/2 ps) are generated at bit rates of 40, 80, and 160 Gb/s using a fiber-optical parametric amplifier. The performance of the parametric pulse source is evaluated both back-to-back and in a 110-km transmission link. A receiver sensitivity of -33 dBm back-to-back was achieved after demultiplexing from 160 to 10 Gb/s. The power penalty at 160 Gb/s due to 110-km transmission was less than 2 dB. Very short pulses (0.5 ps) were also achieved when using the parametric amplifier as a compressor.     

ETDM Transmitter Module for 100-Gb/s Ethernet

Performance of a packaged distributed-feedback travelling-wave electroabsorption modulator module for data transmission at 100 Gb/s is presented for the first time. Clearly open eye diagrams at 80 Gb/s with an extinction ratio (ER) of 4.9 dB and 100 Gb/s with ER 4.2 dB (limited by measurement setup) are demonstrated together with data transmission over 100-m-long standard single-mode fiber and over dispersion-compensated 10-km fiber link.

A novel Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) transmitter that can operate at 40Gb/s and above is proposed. The transmission characteristics of a FSK signal at 40Gb/s are investigated under varying dispersion management. The resilience of compensation ratio and power level is obtained. We also experimentally demonstrate transmission over 100km SMF and transparent wavelength conversion based on a semiconductor optical amplifier.     

Cost‐Effective Transition to 40 Gb/s Line Rate Using the Existing 10 Gb/s‐Based DWDM Infrastructure

In this paper, we propose and demonstrate a cost‐effective technique to upgrade the capacity of dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) networks to a 40 Gb/s line rate using the existing 10 Gb/s‐based infrastructure. To accommodate 40 Gb/s over the link optimized for 10 Gb/s, we propose applying a combination of super‐FEC, carrier‐suppressed return‐to‐zero, and pre‐emphasis to the 40 Gb/s transponder. The transmission of 40 Gb/s DWDM channels over existing 10 Gb/s line‐rate long‐haul DWDM links, including 40×40 Gb/s transmission over KT's standard single‐mode fiber optimized for 10 Gb/s achieves successful results. The proposed upgrading technique allows the Q‐value margin for a 40 Gb/s line rate to be compatible with that of 10 Gb/s.     

Greater than 200 Gb/s Transmission Using Direct-Detection Optical OFDM Superchannel

In this paper, we propose direct-detection optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing superchannel (DDO-OFDM-S) and optical multiband receiving method (OMBR) to support a greater than 200 Gb/s data rate and longer distance for direct-detection systems. For the new OMBR, we discuss the optimum carrier-to-sideband power ratio (CSPR) in the cases of back-to-back and post transmission. We derive the analytical form for CSPR and theoretically verify it. A low overhead training method for estimating I/Q imbalance is also introduced in order to improve performance and maintain high system throughput. The experiment results show that these proposals enable an unprecedented data rate of 214 Gb/s (190 Gb/s without overhead) per wavelength over an unprecedented distance of 720 km SSMF in greater than 100 Gb/s DDO-OFDM systems.     

47.4 Gb/s Transmission Over 100 m Graded-Index Plastic Optical Fiber Based on Rate-Adaptive Discrete Multitone Modulation

We experimentally demonstrate a bit-rate of 47.4 Gb/s over 100 m of perfluorinated multimode graded-index plastic optical fiber (GI-POF) by exploiting discrete multitone (DMT) modulation with rate-adaptive bit-loading. The maximum achieved aggregate bit rate is 51.8 Gb/s including DMT transmission overhead (cyclic prefix and preambles) and the standard of 7% of forward-error-correction (FEC) overhead. This is achieved over an intensity-modulated direct-detection (IM-DD) link using a directly-modulated DFB laser (1300-nm) and a multimode fiber-coupled photodetector with a large diameter of 25-$mu$m. The bandwidth requirement is only 12 GHz due to the use of spectral-efficient modulation formats of up to 64-QAM.      

Integrated 100-Gb/s ETDM Receiver

Ethernet in backbone networks has the potential to provide high-performance and cost-efficient networking solutions. Driven by the rapid growth of Ethernet traffic, it is likely that, in the transport network, the next step in terms of the data rate will be 100 Gb/s. In this paper, we report on an integrated electrical-time-division-multiplexing (ETDM) receiver for 100/107 Gb/s, which comprises 1 : 2 demultiplexing and clock-and-data recovery on a single chip. The ETDM receiver was tested successfully in 100- and 107-Gb/s transmission experiments over 480-km dispersion-managed fiber     

Transmission performance analysis of 8/spl times/10 Gb/s WDM signals using cascaded SOAs due to signal wavelength displacement

We have analyzed the transmission performance of 8/spl times/10 Gb/s wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) signals due to crosstalk in cascaded conventional semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). Using two different methods, the crosstalk over the whole gain bandwidth in SOAs is calculated to be 2-5 dB lower for the positive detuning. Then, transmission performance of 8/spl times/10 Gb/s WDM signals up to 6/spl times/40 km span in terms of receiver sensitivity is estimated over various transmission distances using cascaded SOAs for the positive signal wavelength displacement of 30, 40, and 50 nm. Especially for 50 nm detuning, transmission performances with and without using a reservoir channel are similar to each other. Our results suggest that SOAs can be used as an optical amplifier for displacement larger than 50 nm without using the reservoir channel.

100-Gb/s DQPSK Transmission Experiment Without OTDM for 100G Ethernet Transport

In order to realize a future 100-Gb Ethernet (100 GbE) transport, 100-Gb/s transmission without 100-GHz-class electronics and optical time-division-multiplexing technique was demonstrated. By using a differential quadrature phase-shift-keying (DQPSK) modulation format and commercially available electronics, 2- and 50-km transmissions of 100-Gb/s signal were successfully achieved over a standard single mode fiber. The receiver sensitivity, chromatic dispersion, and differential group delay tolerances of 100-Gb/s DQPSK signal were also evaluated. Through these evaluations, the possibility of DQPSK modulation for future 100-GbE transport is verified     

10Gb/s和40Gb/s RZ-DPSK电预失真系统中非线性效应的研究

通过仿真研究了10和40Gb/s RZ-DPSK电预失真(EPD)系统中的自相位调制(SPM)和交叉相位调制(XPM)等非线性效应。EPD系统中的非线性效应比光色散补偿(ODC)中的大,但在不同比特率下非线性效应不同。对800km标准单模光纤(SSMF)传输的仿真的结果表明:单信道传输时受到SPM影响,比特率为10Gb/s的EPD系统的非线性阈值比ODC系统的小6dBm以上,而当比特率为40Gb/s时的EPD系统非线性阈值只比ODC系统小2dBm。波分复用(WDM)系统中受到SPM和XPM的影响,比特率为10Gb/s的EPD系统的非线性阈值比ODC系统的小6dBm,而比特率为40Gb/s时的EPD系统非线性阈值比ODC系统的小2dBm。研究结果表明,当比特率升高时,EPD系统的非线性效应减弱。     

Rayleigh scattering influence on performance of 10 Gb/s opticalreceiver with Er-doped optical fiber preamplifier

The achievement of -30.8 dBm (630 photon/bit) receiver sensitivity at 10 Gb/s, with an Er³⁺-doped optical fiber preamplifier, is discussed. This is an 8.3-dB sensitivity improvement over the avalanche-photodiode/FET receiver. Power penalties caused by a noise increase due to Rayleigh backscattering by the transmission optical fiber have been evaluated. Approximately -30-dB Rayleigh scattering from a 20-km optical fiber resulted in a 3.5-dB power penalty for a 25-dB-gain optical amplifier

Simulation of single-channel optical systems at 100 Gb/s

With the help of a computer simulation, we have investigated the conditions under which the transmission of light pulses through optical fibers may be possible over thousands of kilometers at a bit rate of 100 Gb/s. Employing an amplifier spacing of only 20 km, nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ), return-to-zero (RZ), and dispersion-managed solitons (DMSs) may all be useful provided that certain additional conditions are met. These include dispersion management by means of a dispersion map, a reduced dispersion slope, low polarization mode dispersion (PMD), and in-line optical filters
