摘要:
Consistent with the present disclosure, polarized optical signals having the same wavelength are modulated in response to ERZ drive signals, to thereby yield corresponding RZ optical signals. Each of the polarized RZ optical signals includes a plurality of RZ transitions wherein the power of the optical signal returns to zero or a minimal power between bits or symbols. The phase or timing of the ERZ drive signals, however, is controlled, so that the RZ transitions in one polarized optical signal remain interleaved with the RZ transitions of the other polarized optical signal. Alternatively, the RZ transitions of the two polarized optical signals may be controlled so that the two are temporally aligned with one another. Thus, the timing of the RZ transitions of one polarized optical signal relative to the other polarized optical signal may be adjusted to optimize system performance.

Consistent with the present disclosure, clock-and-data recovery (CDR) circuitry and driver circuitry are provided on a chip that is separate from the driver circuitry, thereby reducing the amount of power consumed by the driver circuitry and simplifying system design. In one example, timing of the ERZ signals is controlled by a feedback loop that adjusts the phase of a data carrying signal relative to a clock signal, such that the phase has a desired value. Timing of the ERZ signals may thus be adjusted to minimize errors.

An optical system may include a polarization beam splitter having an input that receives multiple optical signals, a first output and a second output. The first output may provide components of the multiple optical signals having a first polarization. The second output may provide components of the multiple optical signals having a second polarization. The optical system may include a rotator having an input that receives the components to rotate the first polarization such that each of the components has the second polarization, and an output to supply components as rotated components.The optical system may also include an optical circuit including a substrate. The rotator may be separate from the substrate. The optical circuit may include an optical demultiplexer circuit provided on the substrate to receive the rotated components and the components.
