Resonant electro-optic frequency comb
摘要： High-speed optical telecommunication is enabled by wavelength-division multiplexing, whereby hundreds of individually stabilized lasers encode information within a single-mode optical fibre. Higher bandwidths require higher total optical power, but the power sent into the fibre is limited by optical nonlinearities within the fibre, and energy consumption by the light sources starts to become a substantial cost factor. Optical frequency combs have been suggested to remedy this problem by generating numerous discrete, equidistant laser lines within a monolithic device; however, at present their stability and coherence allow them to operate only within small parameter ranges. Here we show that a broadband frequency comb realized through the electro-optic effect within a high-quality whispering-gallery-mode resonator can operate at low microwave and optical powers. Unlike the usual third-order Kerr nonlinear optical frequency combs, our combs rely on the second-order nonlinear effect, which is much more efficient. Our result uses a fixed microwave signal that is mixed with an optical-pump signal to generate a coherent frequency comb with a precisely determined carrier separation. The resonant enhancement enables us to work with microwave powers that are three orders of magnitude lower than those in commercially available devices. We emphasize the practical relevance of our results to high rates of data communication. To circumvent the limitations imposed by nonlinear effects in optical communication fibres, one has to solve two problems: to provide a compact and fully integrated, yet high-quality and coherent, frequency comb generator; and to calculate nonlinear signal propagation in real time. We report a solution to the first problem.

Subcarrier-Index Modulated Multicarrier Space-Time Shift Keying: Achievable Rate, Performance and Design Guidelines
摘要： Multicarrier (MC) space-time shift keying (STSK) relying on the concept of subcarrier-index modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SIM-OFDM) is proposed. In conventional MC-STSK system, the performance erosion of STSK in dispersive channels is mitigated by employing OFDM. The SIM-OFDM aided MC-STSK activates a specified limited number of subcarriers for transmitting the STSK codewords. The indices of the activated subcarriers provide additional multiplexing gain. A new receiver architecture, which uses the single-stream maximum-likelihood (ML) detector of STSK and the subcarrier activation principle of SIM-OFDM, is designed. A soft decision logarithmic likelihood ratio (LLR) based detector is also conceived. Helpful design guidelines are provided for the system. The achievable rate, complexity and performance of the system are analytically quantified and verified with the aid of numerical simulations. The system is capable of overcoming the impairments imposed by wideband channels, is benefited from index modulation as well as from STSK. The scheme exhibits an improved error performance compared to the classic OFDM-based STSK as a result of the more reliable detection of the subcarrier index bits.

摘要： The new generation Elastic Optical Networks (EONs) based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) can accommodate exponentially increasing heterogeneous data traffic efficiently and economically. In EONs, the optimum channel spacing between various subcarriers is very crucial for its efficient performance. The use of Sub-Carrier Multiplexing (SCM) in EONs is visualized as an evolving field. This paper present the evaluation of SCM based EONs for both mathematical and simulative model. The designed SCM-EON network is analytically evaluated for its performance with different modulation techniques (Direct Modulation and External Modulation). The performance of system is also evaluated for amplification using Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) and Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA). Simulative results show that Optical Phase Modulation (OPM) along with EDFA offers enhanced performance for the proposed model. It has also been observed that OPM is a better technique for SCM and hence it can be deduced that the combination will boost EONs efficiency in handling network resources.

Routing, spectrum and core assignment algorithms for protection of space division multiplexing elastic optical networks
摘要： Protection is a key issue in optical networks, mainly in spacial division multiplexing (SDM) elastic optical networks (EONs) as these handle the increasing amount of heterogeneous Internet traffic. In this paper, we address protection in SDM-EONs including inter-core crosstalk. We introduce three algorithms, designed to provide 100% protection from single failures. Extensive simulation is used to show that the proposed algorithms prevents the formation of network bottlenecks, thus maintaining the protection of the connections.

摘要： In order to support, in a cost-effective way, the data capacity demand in the context of future 5G networks, a new set of advanced technologies need to be explored, as it is the case of space-division multiplexing (SDM) along with energy efficient coherent detection based modulation formats. This paper presents the recent results on enabled optical networks based on SDM for high capacity optical networks compatible with 5G network infrastructure and data center connectivity. In particular, we demonstrate the viability of using Long-Period Gratings (LPGs) in multi-core fibers (MCFs) to develop different components for multicore-based SDM systems, such as pump couplers and core/wavelength selective multi-core switches and couplers. Moreover, we also present and characterize the performance of different digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms and subsystems supporting optical coherent detection in SDM systems.

Multi-channel silicon photonic receiver based on compact second-order microring resonators
摘要： A monolithically integrated multi-channel receiver fabricated on the Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) platform is demonstrated experimentally. This receiver is composed of an eight-channel thermally tunable microring resonator (MRR) filter as the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) demultiplexer and an array of high speed waveguide-integrated Ge-on-Si photodetectors (PDs) for light detection. Second-order MRRs were utilized in each channel to obtain steeper roll-off from passband to stopband and lower crosstalk. The receiver was fabricated by using CMOS-compatible fabrication process at IME A*STAR. With the thermal tunability, the channel spacing can be adjusted according to different channel grid. Lower than ?30 dB crosstalk and higher than 50 GHz 3-dB bandwidth was obtained for the demultiplexer with a channel spacing of 150 GHz. Proof-of-principle demonstration shows that each channel is capable of operating at a data rate of 10 Gb/s, resulting in an aggregate data rate of 80 Gb/s.

Averaged nonlinear equations for multimode fibers valid in all regimes of random linear coupling
摘要： We develop averaged equations to model nonlinear propagation in multimode fibers that are valid in all regimes of random, linear, intermodal coupling. The propagation equations apply to the three existing regimes of linear coupling – the two previously studied all-mode (strong) and mode-group (weak) couplings and the new intermediate coupling regime. The equations are therefore general and can describe nonlinear propagation for all types of intermodal linear coupling that can exist between modes in a fiber supporting multiple spatial modes. Numerical simulations are performed to validate the new averaged propagation equations in the nonlinear regime.

摘要： 5G wireless communication systems promise efficient spectrum utilization, advanced modulation and access techniques, and high data rate. To obtain these requirements, millimeter wave (MMW) signals and subsystems are the most suitable to be used. The Modules and devices, proposed for these networks, are intended to use the efficient capabilities of photonic technologies. In this paper, a photonics-based millimeter wave switch, for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signals, is proposed by exploiting the nonlinear effects in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). This includes four wave mixing (FWM), self-phase modulation (SPM) and cross-gain modulation (XGM). A 10 Gbps/16QAM-OFDM signal carried over 30 GHz MMW carrier is considered for signal switching. Moreover, we studied the up- and down- wavelength conversion schemes, in terms of probe and pump signal’s power. Furthermore, we investigate the effects of SOA’s injection current and wavelength spacing between the two injected beams that enable optical single sideband (OSSB) generation and switching. Simulation results show possibility of transmitting and switching OFDM signal with 1×10-3 and 13 % rms symbol error rate (SER) and error vector magnitude (EVM), at -22 dBm received power. The simulation is carried out using Virtual Photonic Integrated (VPI) software.
