Extending the Reach of Short-Reach Optical Interconnects With DSP-Free Direct Detection

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 2017
Coherent detection is the usual solution to achieve high bit rate transmission over long distance. However, it requires a local oscillator and energy consuming digital signal processing that make it not suitable for cost and energy sensitive interconnections and short haul links. In these applications, direct detection is the preferred solution and the

NRZ, DB, and DMT performance for short-reach VCSEL-based optical interconnects

Optical Interconnects XXI, 2021
In this paper, we perform a comparison of three modulation formats: NRZ, duo binary and DMT in combination with the state of the art 850 and 910nm VCSELs for their application in short reach high speed optical links. The system for NRZ and DB utilizes feasible for deployment equalization including a 9-tap finite impulse response filter and raised ...

Short Reach Optical Interconnects with Single Externally Modulated Laser Operated in C-Band

2018 20th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks (ICTON), 2018
Datacenters experience massive traffic growth due to expansive growth of cloud services and online gaming [1]. This trend leads to technical and economic challenges to keep up scalability for bandwidth in short reach optical interconnects. It is of critical importance to enable a cost-efficient solution for 400 Gbps links [2].
