Important aspects of current and future optical interconnects over multimode optical fiber are reviewed, with an emphasis on links using short-wavelength VCSELs and PAM-4 modulation.
Optical datacommunication links are under active consideration at rates beyond 40 Gb/s, especially at 100 Gb/s. The development of solutions that are compatible with constraints such as low-bandwidth optical sources requires advanced modulation formats. This talk will concentrate on hybrid schemes, for example combining conventional PAM modulation with an orthogonal channel taken from a CAP system...
100 Gb/s PAM4-CAP2 modulation is demonstrated for next-generation datacommunication links. Simulation studies indicate a power budget advantage of 2.5 dBo relative to PAM8 modulation. A real-time experimental demonstration is performed.
We demonstrate a 3×10Gb/s uncooled MIMO DWDM system using uncooled DFB lasers with real-time crosstalk cancellation, allowing separate lasers to operate at different temperatures. Adaptive laser bias control is applied to ensure adequate channel separation.
We demonstrate a 10 × 10 Gb/s uncooled DWDM system using orthogonal coding on adjacent carriers, assuming the use of a monolithically integrated sources. A power saving of 72% is expected over traditional WDM.
Optical datacommunication links are now required at rates beyond 40 Gb/s. Achieving robust low-cost transmission at these rates necessitates consideration of advanced modulation formats. This paper concentrates on schemes using multiple orthogonal pulses and outlines the advantages relative to alternatives such as multilevel modulation. Recent real-time experimental results at 56 Gb/s are described.
Real-time orthogonal multipulse modulation is demonstrated at 56 Gb/s with transmission over 500 m of single-mode fiber. Up to 2 dBo power budget advantage is predicted relative to alternatives such as PAM4.
A theoretical study compares 100 Gb/s Ethernet links and finds that multi-pulse and hybrid CAP-16/QAM-16 (PAM-8) schemes support transmission over 10 km (2 km) SMF. Multi-pulse and CAP-16/QAM-16 need 2× the number of arithmetic operations and 7× or 3× the number of filter taps respectively but exhibit reduced power dissipation compared with PAM-8.
The demand for high-speed optical links within local-area networks and storage-area networks continues to grow rapidly, with standards under development that demand single-wavelength solutions at data rates of 30 Gb/s and beyond. Robust low-cost schemes are required, with a particular emphasis on multimode-fibre links using optical transceivers based on vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers.
Theoretical investigations have been performed to analyze and compare the link power budget and power dissipation of a 28 Gb/s datacommunication system for data center switch scenarios using NRZ, PAM-4, CAP-16 and 16-QAM-OFDM modulation schemes.
An uncooled dense WDM system is described using standard WDM components and receiver signal processing, with a different number of receivers to transmitters, to allow wide temperature drift of the transmitter lasers.
We demonstrate an uncooled WDM system using standard WDM components and receiver signal processing, with a different number of receivers to transmitters, to allow wide temperature drift of the transmitter lasers. A 100 Gb/s 8-wavelength demonstrator has been developed, which proves the feasibility of the approach over 25 km of SMF.
Theoretical investigations have been carried out to analyze and compare the link power budget and power dissipation of non-return-to-zero (NRZ), pulse amplitude modulation-4 (PAM-4), carrierless amplitude and phase modulation-16 (CAP-16) and 16-quadrature amplitude modulation-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (16-QAM-OFDM) systems for data center interconnect scenarios. It is shown that for...
An 850 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is modulated at 28 Gb/s using pulseamplitude modulation with three levels. Unequalized transmission over 100 m of OM3 MMF is demonstrated, with advantages over NRZ and PAM4 modulation.
This paper considers next-generation optical datacommunication standards and discusses the types of modulation formats that are relevant. The performance of several schemes is considered over multimode fibre. The trade-offs between the different modulation formats are considered in terms of link length, receiver sensitivity and complexity of implementation.
This paper reviews the development of system techniques using advanced modulation formats that have arisen in recent years for use in data communications. Simulations are provided to allow comparison of the emerging schemes.
4 bps/Hz 40 Gb/s carrierless amplitude and phase (CAP) modulation is investigated for next-generation datacommunication links. The 40 Gb/s link achieves double the length of a conventional NRZ scheme, despite using a low-bandwidth source.
An 850 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is modulated at 32 Gb/s using pulse-amplitude modulation with four levels. Transmitter predistortion generates an optimized modulation waveform, which requires a receiver bandwidth of only 15 GHz.
We propose a new low-cost solution using orthogonal transmission of non-return-to-zero and carrierless-amplitude-and-phase format data to realize a coarse OFDM transmission system. Using low bandwidth electronics and optoelectronic components, the system is demonstrated at 37.5Gb/s.
An integrated EOM VCSELs is shown to offer high linearity (92dB/Hz2/3 at 6GHz) and by extrapolation ~90dB/Hz2/3 up to 20GHz. Successful modulation with IEEE 802.11g signals is demonstrated at 6GHz with a 12dB dynamic range.
