Abstract

We demonstrate a radio-over-fiber-based hybrid wavelength-division-multiplexed/time division multiplexed passive optical network (PON) to transmit 5 Gbps data rate to serve 32 subscribers. A broadband light source (BLS) is realized by mutual injection locking between two Fabry-Perot laser diodes at the transmission section to seed wavelength-division-multiplexed channels. Mutual injection locking technique is used to enhance the performance over single Fabry-Perot laser diode and 15  dB/Hz improvements in relative intensity noise(RIN) is realized in our proposed network system. All-optical up-conversion of a 10-GHz 1.25 Gbps on off keying radio frequency (RF) signal is achieved using one single-arm Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM). Transmission performance over 25-km single mode fiber is investigated. Low bit error rate with enhanced eye-diagram is obtained in our proposed system. As a result, the radio over fiber (ROF)-based wavelength-division-multiplexed/time division multiplexed PON set up employing mutually injection locked Fabry-Perot laser diodes can be a better choice in high speed long-haul optical communication system.
