10-Gb/s Transmission in WDM PON Employing Reflective Semiconductor Optical Amplifier and Fibre Bragg Grating Equaliser

摘要

We propose a 10-Gb/s WavelengthDivision-Multiplexed Passive Optical Network(WDM-PON) scheme with upstream transmission employing Reflective Semiconductor Optical Amplifier(RSOA) and Fibre Bragg Grating(FBG) optical equaliser.Transmissions of10-Gb/s non return-to-zero signals using a 1.2-GHz RSOA and FBG optical equaliser with different setups are demonstrated.Significant performance improvement and 40-km standard single mode fibre transmission are achieved using FBG optical equaliser and Remotely Pumped Erbium-Doped Fibre Amplifier(RP-EDFA),where they are used to equalise the output of the band-limited RSOA and amplify the seed light and upstream signal,respectively.
