High-performance TDM demultiplexing of coherent Nyquist pulses using time-domain orthogonality

Abstract: We propose a simple and high-performance scheme for demultiplexing coherent Nyquist TDM signals by photo-mixing on a photo-detector with Nyquist LO pulses. This scheme takes advantage of the time-domain orthogonality of Nyquist pulses, which enables high-SNR demultiplexing and homodyne detection simultaneously in spite of a strong overlap with adjacent pulses in the time domain. The feasibility of this scheme is demonstrated through a demultiplexing experiment employing 80 Gbaud, 64 QAM Nyquist pulse OTDM sign… Show more

“…Optical Nyquist pulses have remarkable properties such as a high bandwidth efficiency and the absence of inter-symbol interference (ISI), which can generate a more densely arranged optical pulse train in the time-domain compared with Gaussian and sech 2 type pulses. The densely arranged pulse train is suitable for high-speed optical time-division multiplexing (OTDM) transmission [1], [3], [5]- [7] and high-rate optical sampling [8].…”

“…Further, optical Nyquist OTDM transmission realizes ultra-high baud rate transmission due to the dense arrangement of the optical Nyquist pulses in the time domain that possess intersymbol interference free (ISI free) property [17,18,19,20,21]. Previously, several reports have demonstrated the generation [17,22,23,24] and detection [25,26] of the optical Nyquist pulse.…”
