We describe a quasi-all-optical extension dedicated to simplifying the deployment of submarine cabled observatories. Based on power-over-fiber technologies, high power supply and data are both transmitted in one optical fiber of a few kilometers in length. We study the Raman amplification on the down-and upstream data in the static regime with the high optical power varying from 100 mW to 4 W over a 10 km long single-mode optical fiber. We focus on the data optical budget and signal to noise ratio dependence with respect to the high optical power value and the data optical wavelength. We also present the transmission quality in the dynamic regime of this quasi-all-optical extension.
demodulation are not necessary. This leads to a much simple and cost-effective IC design with minimum RF feature. Moreover, the electrical self-mixing is also simultaneously used in the system, and it eliminates the need for high-frequency microwave source at the CS and local oscillator at the BS. The system architecture configuration is simplified and the cost budget is reduced. The proposed scheme shows the promising attraction of DMT modulation and self-mixing for 64QAM-OFDM signals application in future optical millimeter-wave access networks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
