EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS ON 10 GBIT/S DATA TRANSMISSION USING DIFFERENT MODULATION SCHEMES

摘要

The authors give an overview of experimental results on 10.7 Gbit/s data transmission over large-core Φ1 mm polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) polymer optical fiber (POF). Different modulation schemes like non-return-to-zero modulation (NRZ), pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) and discrete multitone modulation (DMT) are investigated. The obtained results show that eye-safe data transmission (0 dBm at 680 nm) between 2 m to 20 m step-index POF (SI-POF) or 15 m to 35 m graded-index POF (GI-POF) can be achieved depending on the complexity of signal processing used.
