摘要:
A method includes generating an optical millimeter wave signal for modulation of a first data signal, and deriving from the generated optical millimeter wave signal a subsequent light source for modulation of a second data signal. More specifically the generating includes modulating a light wave to a multiple of a frequency of an oscillating signal. Alternatively, the generating includes modulating a data signal mixed with an oscillating signal to a multiple of a frequency of the oscillating signal. The deriving includes modulating a frequency component filtered from a data modulation of the generated optical millimeter wave signal.

An optical network component, architecture and method for a wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network includes a band coupler configured to demultiplex first and second wavelength division multiplexed content transmitted from an optical line terminal into a first band signal and a second band signal. An arrayed wavelength grating is configured to receive the first band signal and to further demultiplex the first band signal into different wavelengths to provide a plurality of wavelength signals. An optical splitter is configured to split the second band signal into sub-signals and multiplex the sub-signals with each of the wavelength signals such that the first and second wavelength division multiplexed content is provided on a single wavelength to a user.

An optical transport network based on multimode/multicore fibers includes a mode-multiplexer to multiplex independent data streams from one or more transmitters; a multimode erbium-doped fiber amplifier (MM EDFA) to compensate for MMF loss; a multimode optical add-drop multiplexer (MM OADM) to add and/or drop multimode channels in multimode networks; a multimode optical cross-connect; and a mode-demultiplexer to separate various mode streams to one or more receivers.

Methods and systems for secure communication include assigning data streams to respective orthogonal sub-carriers according to random number information at a transmitter. The data streams are modulated onto the respective orthogonal sub-carriers before the orthogonal sub-carriers are transmitted. The random number information is transmitted on a second medium, separate from the transmission medium. The orthogonal sub-carriers are received from the transmission medium at a receiver, while the random number information is received from the second medium at the receiver. The orthogonal sub-carriers are associated with data streams using the random number information and demodulated to produce data for the associated data stream.
摘要:
A coded multidimensional modulation system called generalized OFDM (GOFDM) uses orthogonal subcarriers as bases functions, and the signal constellation points of corresponding multidimensional constellation diagram are obtained as N-dimensional Cartesian product of one-dimensional PAM/two-dimensional QAM. In GOFDM, the N-dimensional/2N-dimensional signal constellation point is transmitted over all N subcarriers/2N-subcarriers, which serve as individual bases functions. Even if some of the subcarriers are severely affected by channel distortion, the overall signal constellation point will face only small distortion, when strong channel capacity achieving channel codes are used. In addition, because the channel capacity is a linear function of number of dimensions, the spectral efficiency of optical transmission systems is significantly improved. Finally, since Euclidean distance of multidimensional signal constellation is much larger that that of two-dimensional signal constellations, OSNR sensitivity is dramatically improved.

Methods and systems for receiving an optical signal using cascaded frequency offset estimation. Coherently detecting an optical signal includes compensating for a coarse laser frequency offset between a transmitting laser and a local oscillator laser by determining a maximum phase error (MPE) in the optical signal, compensating for a residual laser frequency offset between the transmitting laser and the local oscillator laser, and decoding data stored in the optical signal.

An optical apparatus includes a quadrature phase shift keying modulator for generating a non-return-to-zero quadrature phase shift keyed NRZ-QPSK signal from a received lightwave, the modulator being driven by a radio frequency RF signal, an intensity modulator for carving the NRZ-QPSK signal to return-to-zero RZ pulses with a different duty cycle than that of the NRZ-QPSK, the intensity modulator being driven by a radio frequency RF clock signal to change the NRZ-QPSK to an RZ-QPSK signal, and an optical filter with a narrow band for filtering the signal from the intensity modulator to increase optical power that is useable by an optical digital coherent detection system.
