EA-Modulator-Based Optical Time Division Multiplexing/Demultiplexing Techniques for 160-Gb/s Optical Signal Transmission

Performance of a 4×10 Gbit/s optical time domain multiplexed system using SMZ switching

“…They have used periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) hybrid integrated with planer light wave circuit (PLC) for multiplexing of different channels and studied an all channel multiplexer (MUX) and de-multiplexer (DE-MUX) systems. Morari et al [6] presented a new technique electro-absorption modulator as MUX and DEMUX with phase locked loop (PLL) clock recovery. Over the years, it was understood that the performance of an OTDM System largely depends upon the switching characteristics of a DEMUX and therefore extensive study has been done on the performance of various demultiplexing switches [7][8][9][13][14][15][16][17].…”

160-Gbit/s clock recovery using an electro-absorption modulator and 40-Gbit/s ETDM demultiplexer

“…Recently, reported OTDM multiplexers [9,10] can provide qualified and stable OTDM signals but is not widely used in practice due to their high cost. In this work, we propose a cost-effective and low polarization dependent structure to achieve the multiplexing.…”

Novel performance monitoring techniques and their applications to 160-Gb/s ultra high-speed transmission system

“…Furthermore, we explain the method to distinguish the origins of distortion. To confirm the principle we demonstrated the field experiments using generated CS-RZ 160-Gb/s signals and installed fiber in the test-bed of JGNII network, which was provided by National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) [32].
