Summary

A low-cost video baseband transmission system using analog light-intensity modulation with an 850 nm LED compensated for nonlinearity is presented. A very low- noise current amplifier at the input of the receiver and a high-dynamic range automatic gain control provide a transmission system that can accomodate more than a 20 dB difference in optical losses without any adjustment. At the receiver input, a 100 nW (- 40 dBm) optical signal is required for surveillance transmission quality. The transmitter delivers an optical signal power of - 18 dBm to a 50 pm graded-index fiber. The differential gain and phase of the system lie below 2% and 1°, respectively.
