    摘要: A space division multiplexed (SDM) transmission system that includes at least two segments of transmission media in which a spatial assignment of the two segments is different is provided. For example, the SDM transmission may include a first segment of transmission media having a first spatial assignment and a second segment of transmission media having a second spatial assignment, wherein the first spatial assignment differs from the second spatial assignment. An example method obtains an optical signal on a first segment of transmission media having a first spatial assignment and forwards the optical signal on a second segment of transmission media with a different spatial assignment. The transmission media may be a multi-core fiber (MCF), a multi-mode fiber (MMF), a few-mode fiber (FMF), or a ribbon cable comprising nominally uncoupled single-mode fiber (SMF).

    摘要: In one embodiment, a coherent optical receiver has a digital signal processor that processes one or more digital I/Q-signal pairs to recover data carried by a modulated optical signal in a manner that mitigates, based on calibration data retrieved from a memory or on appropriate performance measures and feedback mechanisms, the detrimental effects of frequency-dependent imbalances between the I and Q sub-channels of at least one of the I/Q channels of the receiver. In various embodiments, the calibration data can be generated and written into the memory at the fabrication facility or in situ while the receiver is being operated in a calibration mode. Alternatively or in addition, the calibration data can be generated and dynamically adjusted online during normal operation of the receiver.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for transmitting alternate-polarization phase-shift-keyed data. The output of a laser is modulated to optically encode electronic data using phase shift keying (PSK) to generate an optical signal. An alternate polarization PSK (APol-PSK) signal is generated by alternating the polarization of the optical signal using a modulator such that successive optical bits have substantially orthogonal polarizations.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for providing dispersion compensation for chromatic dispersion introduced in the signal conversion of an optical signal. An exemplary apparatus in accordance with the present invention includes a nonlinear conversion medium arranged within an optical signal path of the optical signal. The conversion medium receives the optical signal and generates a converted optical signal therefrom. At least one dispersion compensator is arranged within the signal path to provide an amount of chromatic dispersion suitable to offset a portion of the chromatic dispersion introduced in the converted signal by the nonlinear conversion medium. The nonlinear medium may be a length of dispersion-shifted fiber used to phase conjugate and/or frequency shift an input optical signal in an optical system utilizing, for example, optical phase conjugation to cancel the effects of fiber nonlinearities. The dispersion compensator may be placed in the optical signal path either before or after the nonlinear conversion medium, or may be distributed within the medium.

    摘要: This invention provides a new architecture for a communication system between head-ends and end-users which expands bandwidth and reliability of the communication system. A mux-node receives communication signals from a head-end and forwards the received communication signals to one or more mini-fiber nodes. The connection to the head-end is via a small number of optical fibers and the connections to each of the mini-fiber nodes may be via one or more optical fibers that may provide full duplex communication. The head-end may communicate with the mux-node using digital or digital and analog signals. The mini-fiber nodes may combine the signals received from the head-end with loop-back signals used for local media access control prior to forwarding the signals to the end-users. Upstream data are received by the mini-fiber nodes and transmitted to the mux-node. The mux-node may route upstream communication signals received from the mini-fiber nodes as downstream signals to other mini-fiber nodes also connected to the mux-node without head-end interaction.
