Performance of the coherent optical binary polarization-shift-keying heterodyne system in free space optical communications using a lognormal atmospheric turbulence model MIC-CPE 2010 [PDF]
In this paper, simulation results for the bit error rate (BER) performance and fading penalty of a coherent optical binary polarization shift keying (2PolSK) heterodyne system adopted for free space optical (FSO) communication links with a log-normal ...

Functional-Link Neural Network for Nonlinear Equalizer in Coherent Optical Fiber Communications
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a simple nonlinear equalizer based on functional-link neural network (FLNN). The nonlinear stochastic mapping enables FLNN to serve as a nonlinear network, so we construct an FLNN with the signals from the two ...

Harnessing optical micro-combs for microwave photonics
In the past decade, optical frequency combs generated by high-Q micro-resonators, or micro-combs, which feature compact device footprints, high energy efficiency, and high-repetition-rates in broad optical bandwidths, have led to a revolution in a wide ...

On the Performance of Coherent OFDM Systems in Free-Space Optical Communications
This paper presents a new model of a coherent orthogonal frequency division multiplexing free space optical communication (OFDM-FSO) system that can be tuned with the virtual local oscillator, under the Gamma-Gamma atmospheric turbulence channel, not ...

Simple DQPSK Signal Regenerator Using Electrical Limiting Amplifiers
A simple optoelectronic regenerator for differential quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) signals is demonstrated. The regenerator consists of two parallel delay interferometers followed by balanced detectors, limiting and driving amplifiers, and a dual ...

Hitless Rate Switching for Dynamically Reconfigurable Optical Systems
We propose a set of techniques to enable hitless rate switching for reconfigurable optical systems and validate, by computer simulations, their applicability to NRZ, RZ, and Nyquist pulse shapes. The polarization-multiplexed quadrature phase-shift keying
