Abstract:This article presents the first results of the timing-jitter characterization of a VCSEL-based optoelectronic oscillator (VBO) at 2,5GHz. For all implementations, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSEL) emitting in the O and C-bands were characterized. The resonant cavity was modified through the optical delay line length to verify its impact on timing-jitter and phase noise of the VBO. The lowest peak-to-peak jitter value obtained experimentally was 71 mUI when the optical fiber length was 1 km, where… Show more
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.
