摘要:
Optical packets are generated by generating a first optical beam with a first wavelength and a second optical beam with a second optical beam. The first optical beam is modulated with a payload signal and then filtered to reduce the bandwidth of the signal. The second optical beam is modulated with a label signal. The filtered modulated first optical beam and modulated second optical beam are combined to generate a dual-wavelength optical beam.

An optical device includes an interferometer for a received optical differential phase shift keying DPSK signal, and an equalizer integrated with the interferometer in a manner for reducing from optical filtering effects an interference by signal bits of the DPSK signal with signal bits of a contiguous DPSK signal. The interferometer is a Michelson delay interferometer type, but can also be a Mach-Zehnder delay interferometer type on fiber, waveguide or other optical structure. The equalizer is a Fabry-Perot type equalizer, but can be a ring resonator type or a fiber based equalizer.

An inventive method for multi-symbol polarization switching for differential detection optical systems includes modulating a laser source by a DQPSK modulator, driving the DQPSK modulator with a data block configured for generating multi-symbol polarization-switched DQPSK differential-encoded signals, and polarizing the multi-symbol polarization-switched DQPSK signals with a polarizing modulator whose modulation speed is based on how often polarization states vary, wherein the data block provides a bits manipulation to provide the multi-symbol polarization switching thereby enabling differential detection for recovering correct original data by a receiver.

A method for optical chirp-free optical polarization modulation includes dividing a data modulated optical signal into a first optical path and a second optical path, using a Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator in the first optical path for imparting a π phase difference between adjacent symbols of the data modulated optical signal in the first optical path, adjusting a delay and amplitude of symbols of the data modulated optical signal in the second path so that the symbols in the first path and the symbols in the second path are synchronized and have substantially equal power levels, and combining the first and second optical paths so that symbols from the first and second optical paths are in orthogonal polarizations.

A method includes producing interference between a received optical OFDM signal and an optical carrier extracted from the received optical OFDM signal to provide optical coherent detection of the received optical OFDM signal. Preferably, producing the interference includes optically splitting the received optical OFDM signal into a first part that is filtered to extract the carrier from the received optical OFDM signal and a second part similar to the received optical OFDM signal.

Systems and methods for optical communication that use a transmitter/receiver. The systems and methods include receiving a modulated, encoded input stream. Channel memory is reduced using coarse digital backpropagation and other channel impairments are removed using turbo equalization. Symbols are detected in the input stream that conform to a non-uniform, polar constellation having a Gaussian source distribution to produce a stream of encoded data. The stream of encoded data is decoded with one or more low density parity check (LDPC) decoders.

Systems and methods to communicate securely includes communicating quantum encryption data on a first wavelength-division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON); and communicating data over separate classical channels of a second WDM-PON, wherein the second WDM-PON synchronizes with the first WDM-PON while providing data communication over the classical channels.
摘要:
In a polarization-multiplexing optical communications system, a method and system for coherent reception of polarization-multiplexed optical communications. Training and data sequences are recovered from a plurality of orthogonally polarized signals, such that training and data sequences may be used on a single channel without loss of spectral efficiency. This is accomplished by estimating a channel response for each orthogonally polarized signal based on the mean of the signal and distinguishing between a data sequence and a training sequence in each orthogonally polarized signal. Such distinguishing is accomplished according to an iterative linear minimum mean-square equalization based on the respective channel response estimate.

Receivers and methods are provided for polarization mode dispersion compensation in multi-level coded-modulation schemes using a BLAST algorithm and iterative polarization cancellation. A receiver includes a vertical Bell Laboratories Layered Space-Time Architecture (V-BLAST) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) detector configured to receive input sequences and partially cancel polarization interference with respect to the input sequences to output symbol estimates for the input sequences. The receiver further includes one or more low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoders coupled to the V-BLAST OFDM detector configured to receive channel bit reliabilities and output code words. The channel bit reliabilities are indirectly calculated from the symbol estimates. The one or more LDPC decoders iteratively provide extrinsic soft information feedback to the V-BLAST OFDM detector to compensate for the polarization interference.
