Abstract: An in-line distortion generator is coupled to an RF amplifier on a single PC board for producing an output signal of useful amplitude but with low composite triple beat and cross modulation distortions. The backplane under the section of the PC board upon which the distortion circuit resides is removed and the portion of the heat sink under the removed portion of the backplane is also removed. This eliminates any parasitic capacitances that could degrade the performance of the RF amplifier, thereby making the distortion circuit transparent to the RF amplifier. Furthermore, the layout of the predistortion circuitry has been specifically designed to enhance the performance of the circuitry without inducing any negative operating characteristics on the associated RF amplifier.

Abstract: In general, in one aspect, the disclosure describes a resonance restricting material in communication with a bypass line of a cable television tap. The bypass line generates resonances at a defined frequency in response to RF parameters in the tap and the resonances increase insertion losses at the defined frequency and precludes bandwidth of the tap being increased above the defined frequency. The resonance restricting material may attenuate the resonances generated by the bypass line at the defined frequency (e.g., approximately 1.2 GHz) and reduce insertion losses at the defined frequency and enable the bandwidth of the tap to be increased (e.g., from 1.0 GHz to 1.5 GHz).

Abstract: A method is provided for using an uncooled laser package having pre-established performance specifications that include a pre-established optical power level. The package is to be used at a second set of performance specifications that include a second optical power level greater than the preestablished optical power level. The method begins by applying a bias level to a laser diode in the uncooled laser package that optimizes distortion and causes the laser package to generate the second optical power level. The bias level is greater than a pre-established bias level specified to generate the pre-established optical power level. Next, the uncooled laser package is heated or cooled to maintain a substantially constant laser diode temperature.

Abstract: A pluggable small form factor optical transmitter is described. The optical transmitter can be plugged into an optical transmission unit which may hold many optical transmitters. The optical transmitter includes an analog laser for QAM transmissions, a TEC driver, pre-distortion circuitry, a microprocessor, and an automatic power control circuit and dither tone level control capability. The optical transmitter may have receptacle optical ports such as LC or SC type, also it may include a pin connector for mating with the optical transmission unit and a latch mechanism to secure the optical transmitter in the optical transmission unit.

Abstract: One or more overlay wavelengths are applied to a GPON architecture to provide sufficient, cost-effective forward bandwidth per home for targeted, unique narrowcast services to allow traditional HFC operators to use a PON architecture with their existing HFC equipment. A separate return path capability using a separate coaxial cable with RF signals to the GPON may also be used. This return capability may be provided either by a fiber optic link or coaxial link from the home.

Abstract: The present invention incorporates GaAs field effect transistors (GaAsFETs) in a radio frequency (RF) ultra-linear amplifier. The described amplifier circuit is a transformer-coupled single input, signal processing unit incorporating ultra-fast, GaAsFETs in a three active device cascode. This arrangement allows for a higher working voltage to be applied across the three semiconductors rather than a traditional two transistor cascode. The operational bandwidth can process a mixed modulation signal comprised of analog and digital channels.
