Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to an optical transmitter, and more particularly to optical transmission method and apparatus for generating optical duo binary signals with frequency chirp.
  • SMF standard single-mode fiber
  • the spectral width of a chirp-free optical signal is given by the Fourier transform limit, i.e., the width is equal approximately to the inverse of the minimum pulse duration, or the data rate.
  • the minimum pulse duration is 100 ps and the spectral width is around 10 GHz or 0.08 nm.
  • the signal pulses After 70 km transmission in SMF, the signal pulses would be broadened by around 100 ps, the minimum pulse duration or the bit period. Therefore the dispersion limited transmission distance of a chirp-free 10 Gbps NRZ optical signal is about 70 km in SMF.
  • ODB Optical Duo-Binary modulation
  • a partial response method of generating ODB signal was described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,867,534, “Optical Transmission Method with Reduced Sensitivity to Dispersion, Transmission Device and System For Implementing this Method” by Price, et al.
  • a quasi three level electrical signal is first generated by passing an input NRZ signal through a narrow filter with bandwidth about 25% ⁇ 30% of the data rate. Then the three-level electrical signal is used to drive a MZ modulator biased at null to generate the ODB signal.
  • dispersion limited transmission distance of 210 km in SMF is obtained by applying the partial response method.
  • the longer transmission distance of an ODB signal is not entirely due to the narrower bandwidth.
  • the “bumps” in the optical signal near the “0” bit state also plays a very important role in extending the transmission distance.
  • the “bumps” are by-products of both partial response method and classical 1-bit delayed method using sharp cut-off filters. Since the bumps have 180 degrees phase shift to the adjacent “1” bit, the destructive interference between the bump and the adjacent “1” bit would help to confine the broadening of the “1” bit pulse. Hence the dispersion penalty would be reduced accordingly. Due to its long transmission distance and its simple implementation, the partial response method is the most widely used ODB method, and is often referred as THE ODB method.
  • the “bumps” can be also introduced using a fractional delay, instead of the whole one-bit delay, in the classical ODB method. This method is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,623,188, “Dispersion Tolerant Optical Data Transmitter” by Dimmick, et al.
  • a four-level electrical signal is generated by combining an input binary signal with its delayed complement through a differential amplifier in this disclosure. The four-level electrical signal is then used to drive a MZ modulator biased at null to generate a four-level optical field, which could be transmitted of 150 km in SMF without any band-limiting filters at 10 Gbps data rate.
  • Chirped ODB modulation was studied in “Chirped duo-binary transmission for mitigating the self-modulation limiting effect”, presented at the OFC 2001, March 2000 by M. Wicher, et al. It shows that negative chirp could improve signal quality at shorter distance ( ⁇ 150 km at 10 Gbps) while positive chirp could improve signal quality at distances greater than 150 km, for example, a positively chirped signal was found to transmit greater than 250 km. In addition, the positive chirp was also found to reduce self phase modulation effect.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a conventional ODB transmitter 100 .
  • An electrical NRZ source 110 is fed into a pre-coder 120 , which is used to make the final optical output signal intensity of this transmitter 100 to be as the same as the input NRZ source 110 .
  • the pre-coder 120 could be a simple XOR gate, with one input being connected to the complement of the incoming NRZ data signal and the other input being connected to the one-bit delayed XOR gate output.
  • the output of the pre-coder 120 is sent into an ODB encoder 130 , which produces a three-level or a four level signal ce(t) to a data driver 140 .
  • the ODB encoder 130 could be implemented using the delay-and-combine methods or using partial response method.
  • the output of the ODB encoder 130 is amplified by the data driver and forwarded to drive a MZ modulator 150 , which also receives optical source from a laser apparatus 160.
  • the optical output of the MZ modulator is an ODB signal where the optical intensity I(t) follows the input NRZ signal d(t).
  • the partial response method is the simplest one to generate chirp-free ODB signals with large dispersion tolerance.
  • all chirp-free ODB signals are very sensitive to non-linear distortion.
  • SPM self phase modulation
  • the frequency domain distortion is converted to time domain distortion, which is the source of non-linear penalty.
  • a positive pre-chirp could be intentionally added to the transmitting signal to compensate the SPM caused negative chirp in order to reduce introduced non-linear penalty.
  • the chirped ODB methods should have better performance with higher signal launch power.
  • the methods disclosed in prior art used double optical modulations, which require precise time alignment between the electrical signals driving the two modulators.
  • These two driving signals in the chirped ODB methods are data patterns; one is NRZ signal and another is pre-coded data.
  • the variable delay lines needed for the timing alignment have to have uniform response over a broad bandwidth, which are usually bulky and expensive. This is a big obstacle for the practical implementation of the chirped ODB modulation methods.
  • the system includes a pre-coder for pre-coding an input signal into a pre-coded signal, an encoder/separator coupled to the pre-coded signal and arranged to encode the pre-coded signal into a first encoded signal with 0 degree phase shift and a second encoded signal with 180 degree phase shift, and an optical modulator for providing optical intensity modulation to the first and second encoded signals with an light source such that the intensity of an output optical duo-binary (ODB) signal with frequency chirp has identical logic sequence as the input signal.
  • ODB optical duo-binary
  • the present invention offers longer transmission distance and better tolerance to non-linear effects comparing to prior art. Furthermore, a single modulator of the present invention is much simpler and less expensive than those methods using double optical modulations. It also makes practical implementation of chirped ODB signal possible.
