Abstract:
In this paper, a bidirectional transmission system based on Passive Optical Network (PON) and wavelength reuse technology is proposed and demonstrated. A local oscillator with 16 GHz via first Mach-Zehnder Modulator (MZM) and 1.25-Gb/s data via second MZM generate the transmitting signal. The signal is separated by Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) into two optical signals. One is central carrier and the other is subcarrier. The subcarrier signal transports data from Optical Line Terminal (OLT) to Optical Network Unit (ONU) by 25 km Single Mode Fiber (SMF) transmission. The central carrier is reused as upstream light source to achieve bidirectional transmission. The power penalty of the system is < 1.7 dB for downlink with and without enhanced channel, and downlink and uplink transmissions of Bit Error Rate (BER) performances are < 10-9.
