摘要:
A phase-shift keyed signal demodulator is disclosed including a filter positioned to receive an input beam, a first photodiode positioned to receive light reflected from the filter, and a second photodiode positioned to receive light transmitted through the filter. A difference between outputs of the first and second photodiodes is interpreted to determine a data value encoded in the input beam. In another embodiment N filters receive inputs from a splitter and include transmission functions offset from one another. N pairs of photo diodes receive the transmitted and reflected beams from each filter and a decoder converts the outputs of the pairs of photodiodes to one or more data symbols.

Low-cost FP lasers can be implemented in the upstream links of a WDM PON system by configuring them for single-mode operation. In a typical embodiment, an FP laser at a subscriber unit is injection seeded with CW seed light from a DFB laser or an ASE source at a central office to enable single-mode operation of the FP laser. The FP laser is directly modulated and the resulting optical data signal is transmitted upstream to the central office. At the central office, an optical spectrum reshaper/bandpass optical filter is positioned in front of an optical receiver to enhance the extinction ratio of the optical data signal and generate a vestigial sideband. A wavelength locker can also be implemented at the central office to stabilize the wavelength of the master DFB laser and the injection-seeded FP laser.

A small-scale VOA system includes a polarization rotator, a voltage multiplier circuit, and at least one transistor. The polarization rotator can be positioned within a TOSA along the emission axis of a corresponding optical signal source in addition to one or more polarizers. A microcontroller provides a first low voltage control signal to a voltage multiplier to generate a large voltage DC signal which is provided to the transistor. The transistor modulates the large voltage signal with a second control signal from the microcontroller to generate a large voltage AC signal for driving the polarization rotator. The polarization rotation of the polarization rotator can be altered depending on the applied large-voltage AC signal. As a result, the polarization rotator and one or more polarizers can variably attenuate signals emitted by the optical signal source or act as a shutter.
