Design And Analysis Of A Double Carrier Modulation/Differential Detection Technique For Optical Fiber Communications
description Fiber optic long haul transmissions have been globally deployed at a staggering rate. All of the installed networks are using Intensity Modulation/Direct Detection (IM/DD). Although the IM/DD systems are proven and used widely, these networks are still subjected to many problems. The main problems associated with long haul transmission are; high dispersion and losses incurred by the fiber, and the inability of the receiver circuit to regenerate the transmitted bits. This is because of low signal power and inter-symbol interference, in addition to the masking noises. The recovery technique in the conventional receivers based on the IM/DD scheme uses an injected voltage level as a threshold into a decision circuit, which decides whether the incoming bit is a 0 or a 1. This scheme has two inherent problems; the instability of the injected threshold voltage, and the complexity of a dynamic threshold processing.
