- TAYE-34 Daniel Mahgerefteh et al. for METHOD OF TRANSMISSION USING PARTIAL FM AND AM MODULATION (Attorney' s Docket No. TAYE-41 PROV) .
- This invention relates to signal transmissions in general, and more particularly to the transmission of optical signals.
- the quality and performance of a digital transmitter is determined by the distance over which the transmitted digital signal can propagate without severe distortions. This is typically characterized as the distance over which a dispersion penalty reaches a level of ⁇ 1 dB.
- TAYE-34 source can transmit up to a distance of ⁇ 50 km in standard single mode fiber at 1550 nm before the dispersion penalty reaches the level of ⁇ 1 dB. This distance is typically called the dispersion limit.
- the dispersion limit is determined by the fundamental assumption that the digital signal is transform- limited, i.e., the signal has no time-varying phase across its bits and the signal has a bit period of 100 ps, or l/(bit rate) for a 10Gb/s.
- a preferred embodiment of the invention is a novel transmitter comprising a directly modulated laser followed by an optical spectrum reshaper (OSR) .
- This transmitter is sometimes referred to as a Chirp Managed Laser (CMLTM) by Azna LLC of Wilmington Massachusetts.
- CMLTM Chirp Managed Laser
- An important aspect of the CMLTM is the generation of an AM signal having a flat-topped instantaneous frequency profile having fast rise times and fall times relative to the intensity profile of the signal.
- a flat-topped frequency profile is to be distinguished from adiabatic frequency profile; for an optical signal having a flat-topped chirp, the intensity profile is
- TAYE-34 substantially encompassed by the frequency profile, so that nearly all the intensity profile has the same constant frequency.
- the intensity and frequency have substantially the same temporal profile.
- a fiber optic communication system comprising: an optical signal source adapted to produce a binary amplitude modulated signal; and an optical spectrum reshaper adapted to receive the amplitude modulated signal and to change the instantaneous frequency of the signal at its 0-to-l and l-to-0 transitions so as to change the instantaneous frequency of the signal so that it is substantially constant across the 1 pulse.
- a fiber optic communication system comprising: an optical signal source adapted to produce a binary amplitude modulated signal having a first adiabatic instantaneous frequency profile; and
- TAYE-34 an optical spectrum reshaper adapted to receive the signal and change the first adiabatic instantaneous frequency profile to a second substantially flat-topped instantaneous frequency profile.
- a fiber optic communication system comprising: an optical signal source adapted to receive a base signal and produce an amplitude modulated first signal having a first adiabatic instantaneous frequency profile; and an OSR adapted to convert said first signal to a second signal, wherein said second signal has a substantially flat-topped instantaneous frequency profile.
- a fiber optic communication system comprising:
- TAYE-34 an optical signal source adapted to receive a base signal and produce an amplitude modulated first signal; and an OSR adapted to convert said first signal to an amplitude modulated second signal, wherein the rise and fall times of the second signal are correspondingly faster than the rise and fall times of the first signal.
- a fiber optic communication system comprising: an optical signal source adapted to receive a base signal and produce an amplitude modulated first signal having a first adiabatic instantaneous frequency profile; and an OSR adapted to convert said first signal to an amplitude modulated second signal having a second instantaneous frequency profile, wherein the rise and fall times of the amplitude of second signal are correspondingly faster than the rise and fall times of the amplitude of the first signal.
- TAYE-34 In another form of the invention, there is provided a method for transmitting a signal through a fiber, comprising: generating a second signal from the signal, wherein the second signal comprises a intensity profile and an adiabatic frequency profile; generating a third signal from the second signal, wherein the third signal comprises a intensity profile and a flat-topped frequency profile.

- the present invention comprises an apparatus and method for converting the adiabatically chirped output signal from a directly modulated laser (or other FM source) into a flat-topped instantaneous frequency using an optical spectrum reshaper formed by an edge filter.
- a flat-topped frequency c , profile is to be distinguished from adiabatic frequency profile; for an optical signal having a flat-topped chirp, the intensity profile is encompassed by the frequency profile, so that nearly all the intensity profile has the same constant frequency.
- the intensity and frequency have substantially the same temporal profile. This is shown in Fig. 1.
- OSR optical spectrum reshaper
- TAYE-34 intended to mean a passive (or active) optical element that imparts a frequency dependent loss and can change the frequency profile of an amplitude modulated input optical signal.
- OSR optical-to-resistance ratio
- a linear edge filter having a linear transmission region, a corner and a constant transmission region, as shown in the example in Fig. 2.
- the OSR may also add transient chirp to the signal.
- Transient chirp is defined as an abrupt change in the frequency from a value fj to a value
- Transient chirp typically occurs near the 1 bit to 0 bit, or the 0 bit to 1 bit, transitions and has a duration which is much shorter than the bit period.
- Transient chirp can be positive (defined as a blue shifted excursion of frequency) or negative (defined as a red shifted frequency excursion) .
- Transient chirp may also have a blue shifted component followed by a red shifted component, or vice-versa (a red-shifted component followed by a blue shifted component) .
- the OSR can be adapted to induce this chirp modification even if the input signal has no FM modulation and is therefore chirp free before the OSR.
- the OSR is a filter that is adapted to change the magnitude or shape of the frequency modulation of an amplitude modulated input optical signal; this may be referred to as AM-to-FM conversion.
- the OSR can also change the amplitude modulation of a frequency modulated input signal; this may be referred to as FM-to-AM conversion in the art.
- the OSR can also be adapted to change the magnitude or shape of the amplitude modulation and the frequency modulation of an input optical signal with both amplitude modulation and frequency modulation; this may be referred to as simultaneous AM-to-FM and FM-to-AM conversion.
- the optical signal after a directly modulated laser has adiabatic chirp, and may also have transient chirp.
- the interaction of adiabatic chirp and transient chirp with the OSR modifies the amplitude of
- TAYE-34 the output by FM-to-AM conversion through the OSR.
- the transmission spectrum of the OSR can be expanded in a Taylor' s series in frequency, having the form:
- T ⁇ ) a 0 + a x ⁇ + a 2 ⁇ 2 + ⁇ 3 ⁇ 3 H — .
- the impact of the various terms can be determined separately.
- An OSR with only the linear term may be referred to as a first order OSR, and so on for higher order terms .
- the spectral shaping properties of the various terms can then be used to design an OSR for the desired spectral shaping properties.
- a first order OSR will be considered.
- A(t) is the envelope of the field
- ⁇ is the
- TAYE-34 The impulse response determines the action of the OSR on the input time-varying electric field in the time domain. From Fourier Transform theory, the envelope of the optical field after the OSR is given by the convolution of the edge filter impulse response and the input field, and is given by:
- Eq. 3 mathematically describes the action of the first order OSR (i.e., the edge filter) on the input electric field.
- the edge filter adds the time
- the corresponding instantaneous frequency profile is the negative derivative of phase:
- Eq. 4 is, therefore, the envelope of the electric field, and Eq. 6 is its frequency profile at the output of the OSR.
- the second term under the square root is the contribution of the OSR to the amplitude of the field; a higher slope, b, adds more of the derivative. This makes the leading and trailing edges of the pulse to become steep; hence the OSR decreases the rise time and fall time of the
- TAYE-34 amplitude envelope after the OSR.
- a higher OSR slope leads to a shorter rise time and fall time.
- Fig. 3 shows the amplitude and instantaneous frequency of a super
- Eqs. 3-6 are used to calculate the output field amplitude and frequency profiles.
- the super Gaussian pulse is initially transform limited (i.e., has no chirp) before the OSR and so the instantaneous frequency profile is zero relative to the carrier.
- Fig. 3a shows that the amplitude of the pulse is enhanced near its rising and falling edges, where the input envelope is changing. This tends to reduce the rise and fall times of the amplitude profile.
- This feature can be useful in situations where the bandwidth of the source, such as a DFB laser, is not sufficient for the bit rate of operation, and
- TAYE-34 leads to an eye diagram with a variation in the 1 bit amplitude for single bits compared to longer 1 bit sequences.
- the use of the OSR with high slope, in this case, can decrease the rise and fall times, and enhance the 1 bit amplitude for single Is so that they are substantially the same level as the amplitude of the longer sequence of 1 bits. This in turn reduces the bit error rate (BER) at the receiver in the back- back configuration, where the digital signal is directly detected without propagation through a fiber.
- BER bit error rate
- the OSR may change the instantaneous frequency profile of the output electric field.
- this may be referred to as spectral reshaping.
- the realization that the OSR may change the instantaneous frequency profile of the output electric field is an important aspect of the present invention.
- the OSR adds some blue-shifted transient frequency modulation to the rising and falling edges of the pulse. The middle portion of the frequency profile of the pulse is unchanged by the OSR in this
- the OSR also induces two sharper, red- shifted transient lobes on either side of .the blue- shifted transient chirp, which have smaller energy.
- the relative energy in the blue and red shifted side lobes can be noticed by weighting the instantaneous frequency profile by the normalized amplitude of the output pulse, as shown in Fig. 3d.
- the transient chirp induced by the OSR is symmetric for the rising and at the falling edges of the pulse. This is in contrast to the intrinsic transient chirp of DFB laser, for example, in which the transient chirp is blue-shifted for the rising edge and red-shifted for the falling edge.
- the symmetric blue-shifted transient chirp at the pulse edges which may be referred to herein as rabbit ears (see Fig. 6) , is important for the conversion of adiabatic chirp to flat-topped chirp, as described below.
- the blue-shifted transient region on the falling edge of the pulse helps to compress the pulse after propagation though positive dispersion fiber.
- TAYE-34 on the falling edge moves into the adjacent 0 bit after propagation through a fiber having positive dispersion and may cause inter-symbol interference.
- TAYE-34 transient chirp described above.
- This intra-pulse interference can be controlled by adjusting the adiabatic chirp of the laser, as described by pending prior U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 11/068,032, filed 02/28/2005 by Daniel Mahgerefteh et al. for OPTICAL SYSTEM COMPRISING AN FM SOURCE AND A SPECTRAL RESHAPING ELEMENT (Attorney's Docket No. TAYE-31) and/or pending prior U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 60/569,768, filed 05/10/2004 by Daniel Mahgerefteh et al. for METHOD OF TRANSMISSION USING PARTIAL FM AND AM MODULATION (Attorney' s Docket No. TAYE-41 PROV), which patent applications are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
- the magnitude of the blue-shifted transient component generated by the OSR at the edges of the output pulse is proportional to the slope of the first order OSR, b, and the derivative of the amplitude near the edges. Therefore, faster rise times and fall times in the amplitude profile of the input to the OSR produce larger values of transient chirp after the OSR.
- TAYE-34 rise time and fall time of the transition in the frequency profile after the OSR are also determined by the rise time and fall times of the amplitude envelope before the OSR.
- the OSR may be adapted to convert an input signa.1 with adiabatic chirp to one with flat-topped chirp at the output of the OSR. Basically, starting with a Gaussian shaped amplitude and frequency profile, the symmetric blue-shifted transient chirp induced by the
- TAYE-34 OSR adds to the adiabatic chirp of the input to produce a square shaped frequency profile at the output.
- the input optical field to the OSR has a time varying frequency (i.e., chirp)
- the output field after the OSR, from Eq. 7, is the instantaneous frequency shift of the input field from the carrier frequency.
- optical phase is modified by the first order OSR to have additional phase
- Eq. 11 shows that the first order OSR adds the frequency shift associated with the logarithmic time derivative of the envelope to the initial chirp before
- Fig. 5 shows the input and output pulses for the example of a signal with adiabatic chirp at the OSR input.
- This case can be physically realized by directly modulating a DFB laser with the laser biased high above threshold, for example 80 mA.
- the instantaneous frequency at the output of the laser follows the amplitude modulation according to:
- Af AD is the adiabatic chirp magnitude
- P(t) A 2 (t)is the optical power, and P 0 is its average.
- the slope of the OSR is adjusted to obtain a nearly flat-topped frequency profile, while the envelope of the output pulse is nearly unaffected.
- TAYE-34 It is therefore an embodiment of the present invention to adjust the slope of the OSR to convert a signal having an adiabatic chirp frequency profile to one having a flat-topped chirp frequency profile.
- the slope, b, of the OSR should be optimized to obtain a flat-topped instantaneous frequency profile from a given input pulse with adiabatic chirp.
- the required frequency correction to obtain a flat top frequency profile is on the order of
- Eq. 16 provides a prescription for adjusting the OSR slope and input signal characteristics in order to generate flat-topped chirp.
- the required slope increases with increasing adiabatic chirp, input pulse width before the OSR, and input extinction ratio before the OSR.
- ER initial extinction ratio
- Fig. 6 shows an example. It shows the amplitude and frequency profiles of a 1111 bit
- TAYE-34 sequence and single 1 bit after passing through an OSR The slope is such that the single bit has a flat-top frequency profile. However, the 1111 sequence has rabbit ears. This is because the 1111 bit sequence experiences a different effective slope for the particular OSR used.
- the OSR was the edge of a 3 cavity multi-etalon bandpass filter.
- a variety of transmission or reflection filtering elements can be used as an OSR by tuning the wavelength of the input signal to the portion of the optical spectrum of the filter having the desired shape and slope.
- One example is the edge of the transmission curve having a high slope.
- filters that can function as OSRs are multicavity etalon filters, fiber Bragg gratings, a cascade of micro-ring resonators, single cavity Fabry-Perot filters, edge filters, and multicavity thin film filters.
- TAYE-34 generate a very similar effect.
- Examples are Bessel fitlers, edge fitlers having a tangent hyperbolic shape.
- Eq. 16 is a design guide for determining the optimum slope of the OSR for a given extinction ratio, adiabatic chirp, and rise/fall time.
- TAYE-34 the dispersion in a transmission fiber. This compensation is manifested in the time domain by a linear instantaneous frequency profile near the peak of the 1 bit.
- a combination of the action of the OSR, at the edge of a filter, for example, and the negative dispersion of the filter, which " gives the linear slope, can then convert an adiabatically frequency modulated signal before the OSR to an instantaneous frequency profile with a linear slope near the center of the pulse and fast rise and fall times at the transitions .
