50 Gb/s Transmission using OSSB-MultiCAP Modulation and a Polarization Independent Coherent Receiver For Next-Generation Passive Optical Access Networks

2021 
In this paper, a spectrally efficient version of multiband Carrierless Amplitude Phase modulation (MultiCAP) based on Optical Single-Sideband (OSSB) techniques is proposed for its use in high capacity access links. The proposed system consists of four 2.5 GBd OSSB-MultiCAP bands with quadrature amplitude modulation and uses an insensitive polarization receiver to avoid optical polarization issues and adjustments at the receiver side. This scheme has been experimentally evaluated and can provide an aggregated transmission rate of 50 Gb/s over 50 km of standard single mode optical fiber using only 10G electronic and photonic devices in C-band with a sensitivity of -23.2 dBm and a measured optical power budget of 25.2 dB. 40 Gb/s transmission over 50 km with a sensitivity of -27.5 dBm and a measured power budget of 32.5 dB is also demonstrated.
