A New Scheme for Bidirectional WDM-PON Using Upstream and Downstream Channels Generated by Optical Carrier Suppression and Separation Technique

摘要

We propose a new bidirectional dense wavelength-division-multiplexing (DWDM)-based passive optical network using optical carrier suppression and separation technique to generate both upstream and downstream wavelength channels from a single laser. Thirty-two DWDM channels have been generated, and symmetric 10-Gb/s data transmission of a wavelength pair has been demonstrated.
