The downstream wavelength serves as the pump of the BSFL. Brillouin-frequency-shifted (-10.8 GHz) upstream carrier is generated to suppress the Rayleigh backscattering and back reflection-induced crosstalk. The stable multi-longitudinal operation of the BSFL, attributed to the four-wave mixing (FWM) effect in the semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) reduces the difficulty of generating a stable single-longitudinal fiber laser-based upstream carrier. Bidirectional symmetric transmission at 10 Gb/s over a 12.5-km single mode fiber with less than 2-dB power penalty is demonstrated.展开更多

The proposed scheme is compatible with the conventional RoF and PON system. 25-km single-mode fiber (SMF) transmission is successfully achieved.展开更多

The distributed feedback(DFB) lasers modulated in 4-level pulse amplitude modulation(4-PAM) format are used for downstream links, and the reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers(RSOAs) together with an optical frequency comb modulated in quadrature phase shift keying(QPSK) format are used for upstream links. We can achieve the error-free transmission of the upstream signals with speed of 12.5 Gbit/s even after 20 km single-mode fiber(SMF). The power penalty obtained by using the frequency comb generator instead of a tunable laser is around 0.5 d B. By using 11 DFB lasers and a set of intensity and phase modulators, it is possible to provide the seed light for 297 optical network units(ONUs) within the C-band.展开更多
