Abstract

We have proposed and demonstrated a full-duplex wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network (WDM-PON) configuration based on reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA). RSOA is used for reusing and remodulate the downlink signal in the uplink. We have used external modulation scheme for transmitting 20 Gbps data rates in two channels over a 40 km single mode fiber (SMF). The uplink and the downlink performances are checked by the bit error rate (BER) and the eye diagrams.
