چکیده

An injection locking-based pump recovery system for phase-sensitive amplified links, capable of handling 40 dB effective span loss, is demonstrated. Measurements with 10 GBd DQPSK signals show penalty-free recovery of a pump wave, phase modulated with two sinusoidal RF-tones at 0.1 GHz and 0.3 GHz, with 64 dB amplification. The operating power limit for the pump recovery system is experimentally investigated and is governed by the noise transfer and phase modulation transfer characteristics of the injection-locked laser. The corresponding link penalties are explained and quantified. This system enables, for the first time, WDM compatible phase-sensitive amplified links over significant lengths.

Phase synchronization scheme for a practical phase sensitive amplifier of ASK-NRZ signals.

We present a phase locking scheme that enables the demonstration of a practical dual pump degenerate phase sensitive amplifier for 10 Gbit/s non-return to zero amplitude shift keying signals. The scheme makes use of cascaded Mach Zehnder modulators for creating the pump frequencies as well as of injection locking for extracting the signal carrier and synchronizing the local lasers. An in depth ...

The Transient Behavior of LC and Ring Oscillators under External Frequency Injection

 In this work, time domain analysis is used to solve Adler’s equation in order to obtain the required time, for an oscillator under external injection, reaching the steady-state condition. Mathematical approach has been applied to fully describe the transient of frequency acquisition in injection-locked LC and Ring oscillators considering their time-varying nature. Then, the analysis is verifie...

Phase-Sensitive Amplification in Optical Fibers

We describe the progress in fiber-based phase-sensitive parametric amplifiers in both frequency-degenerate and frequency-nondegenerate configurations. We discuss their applications for phase regeneration, as well as for lumped and distributed noiseless amplification. 2005 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (060.2320) Fiber optics amplifiers and oscillators; (190.4410) Nonlinear optics, par...

Optoelectronic Oscillators for Communication Systems

We introduce and report recent developments on a novel five port optoelectronic voltage controlled oscillator consisting of a resonant tunneling diode (RTD) optical-waveguide integrated with a laser diode. The RTD-based optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) has both optical and electrical input and output ports, with the fifth port allowing voltage control. The RTD-OEO locks to reference radio-freque...

0 Theory of self phase - locked optical parametric oscillators

The plane-wave dynamics of 3ω → 2ω, ω subharmonic optical parametric oscillators containing a second harmonic generator of the idler-wave ω is analyzed analytically by using the meanfield approximation and numerically by taking into account the field propagation inside the media. The resonant χ(−3ω; 2ω, ω) : χ(−2ω;ω,ω) cascaded second-order nonlinearities induce a mutual injection-locking of th...
