Fast Distributed Demand Response Algorithm in Smart Grid

This paper proposes a fast distributed demand response U+0028 DR U+0029 algorithm for future smart grid based on primaldual interior method and Gaussian belief propagation U+0028 GaBP U+0029 solver. At the beginning of each time slot, each end-user U+002F energysupplier exchanges limited rounds of messages that are not private with its neighbors, and computes the amount of energy consumption U+002F generation locally. The proposed demand response algorithm converges rapidly to a consumption U+002F generation decision that yields the optimal social welfare when the demands of endusers are low. When the demands are high, each end-user U+002F energysupplier estimates its energy consumption U+002F generation quickly such that a sub-optimal social welfare is achieved and the power system is ensured to operate within its capacity constraints. The impact of distributed computation errors on the proposed algorithm is analyzed theoretically. The simulation results show a good performance of the proposed algorithm. © 2017 Chinese Association of Automation.

40-Gb/s PolMux-QPSK transmission using low-voltage modulation and single-ended digital coherent detection

We demonstrate a novel 40-Gb/s transmission system over a 10×101-km standard single mode fiber （SSMF） loop. This system features polarization multiplexed quadrature phase shift keying （PolMux-QPSK）, lowvoltage modulation of 2-V peak-to-peak signal amplitude, and home-made 90° optical hybrid with singleended digital coherent detection. Any power amplifers before the modulator and balanced detectors are not used. In the case of low-voltage modulation, coherent detection is much less sensitive to modulator bias offset than delay interferometer-based demodulation.

Design of Raman-parametric fiber amplifier for wavelength division multiplex transmission system

We optimize the novel configuration of a hybrid fiber amplifier - Raman assisted-fiber-based optical parametric amplifier （R-FOPA）, in which the parametric gain and Raman gain profiles are combined to achieve a flat composite gain profile. The pump powers and the fiber length in the hybrid amplifier are effectively optimized by genetic algorithm （GA） scheme. The optimization results indicate that the RFOPA can achieve a 200-nm flat bandwidth spectrum with the gain of 20 dB and ripple of less than 4 dB.

160 km all-optical OFDM transmission system with inline chromatic dispersion compensation

An experimental demonstration of an all-optical sampling orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （AOS-OFDM） transmission system with inline chromatic dispersion （CD） compensation is carried out to test the nonlinear influence. With five subcarriers non-return-to-zero （NRZ） modulated, the total bit rate is 50 Gb/s without polarization multiplexing. The receiver end is highly simplified with direct de- tection using optical Fourier transform filter. After transmission in 160-km standard single-mode fiber （SSMF） link with 130-ps/nm residual CD, an optimum input optical power for the system performance is achieved.

Effects of modulation amplitude and frequency of frequency-modulated fiber lasers on the threshold of the stimulated Brillouin scattering in optical fiber

Stimulated Brillouin scattering （SBS） is a key problem with the increasing power of fiber transmission systems. In this letter, a frequency-modulated fiber laser with an ultra-narrow linewidth is chosen as a light source. The SBS threshold is increased from 4.1 to 6.2 mW at 13-MHz frequency modulation amplitude for a 50-km G652 fiber. We also show that the SBS threshold increases with not only the frequency modulation amplitude, but also the modulation frequency. The modulation frequency should be high enough for effective modulation.

A novel duplex WDM-PON with DPSK modulated downstream and re-modulation of the downlink signal for OOK upstream

We experimentally demonstrate and analyze a 10 Gbit/s full duplex wavelength division multiplexing passive optical net- work （WDM-PON） system. A non-return-to-zero differential phase shift keying （NRZ-DPSK） modulation technique is first utilized for downlink direction, and then the downlink signal is re-modulated for the uplink direction using intensity modulation technique of on-off keying （0OK） with a data rate of 10 Gbit/s per channel. An effective colorless WDM-PON full duplex transmission system is achieved for the data rate of 10 Gbit/s per channel with a channel spacing of 60 GHz over the distance of 25 km with low power penalty.

An AWG-based 10 Gbit/s colorless WDM-PON system using a chirp-managed directly modulated laser

We propose an arrayed waveguide grating(AWG)-based 10 Gbit/s per channel full duplex wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network(WDM-PON).A chirp managed directly modulated laser with return-to-zero(RZ) differential phase shift keying(DPSK) modulation technique is utilized for downlink(DL) direction,and then the downlink signal is re-modulated for the uplink(UL) direction using intensity modulation technique with the data rate of 10 Gbit/s per channel.A successful WDM-PON transmission operation with the data rate of 10 Gbit/s per channel over a distance of 25 km without any optical amplification or dispersion compensation is demonstrated with low power penalty.
