A full-duplex optical access system with hybrid 64/16/4QAM-OFDM downlink

A full-duplex optical passive access scheme is proposed and verified by simulation, in which hybrid 64/16/4-quadrature amplitude modulation(64/16/4QAM) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) optical signal is for downstream transmission and non-return-to-zero(NRZ) optical signal is for upstream transmission. In view of the transmitting and receiving process for downlink optical signal, in-phase/quadrature-phase(I/Q) modulation based on Mach-Zehnder modulator(MZM) and homodyne coherent detection technology are employed, respectively. The simulation results show that the bit error ratio(BER) less than hardware decision forward error correction(HD-FEC) threshold is successfully obtained over transmission path with 20-km-long standard single mode fiber(SSMF) for hybrid downlink modulation OFDM optical signal. In addition, by dividing the system bandwidth into several subchannels consisting of some continuous subcarriers, it is convenient for users to select different channels depending on requirements of communication.

Application of real-time digitization techniques in beam measurement for accelerators

Beam measurement is very important for accelerators. In this paper, modern digital beam measurement techniques based on I Q（In-phase ＆ Quadrature-phase） analysis are discussed. Based on this method and highspeed high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion, we have completed three beam measurement electronics systems designed for the China Spallation Neutron Source（CSNS）, Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility（SSRF）, and Accelerator Driven Sub-critical system（ADS）. Core techniques of hardware design and real-time system calibration are discussed, and performance test results of these three instruments are also presented.
