We have experimentally investigated the eye margin characteristics of intensity modulated 10Gb/s NRZ signals in optically amplified systems depending on optical signal-to-noise ratio and chromatic dispersion. For the practical system application, the minimum optical signal-to-noise ratio was 25 dB. We utilized the negative chirped transmitter and a dispersion compensation fiber to compensate the chromatic dispersion in single mode fiber. We found the optimum eye opening and receiver sensitivity in case of the residual dispersion of 0~+935 ps/nm.

We present a spectrum broadening technique to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of spectrum sliced incoherent light sources using the fiber four-wave mixing effect which occurs in a nonlinear loop mirror located at the receiver. The initial transmission channel bandwidth of 0.92 nm was increased to 1.62 nm in the nonlinear loop mirror at the optical receiver, which enhances the signal-to-noise ratio to a desired value. Using this technique, we have demonstrated the transmission of a 2.5 Gb/s NRZ signal with the 0.92 nm bandwidth through a 80 km dispersion-shifted fiber. The measured transmission penalty was less than 0.2 dB at $1{\imes}10^{-10}$ BER.

A timing recovery circuit of 10 Gbit/s optical receiver is described. The circuit consists of a passive NRZ-to-PRZ circuit, a dielectric resonator filter (DRF) and a narrow band amplifier, which for the first time adopted a temperature compensation technique using the tempareature characteristics of DR. The experimental results showed an output clock phase variation of less than ${\pm}$6 degree over the operating temperature range form 0$^{\circ}C$ to 75$^{\circ}C$ and measured maximum rms jitters of less than 2 phs with the resonance detunings of up to ${\pm}$10 MHz. These experimental results show that the circuit is a suitable for 10 Gbit/s lightwave transmission system.

In this study, we employed Manchester code for illumination control and flicker prevention of the light-emitting diode (LED) used in a visible light communication (VLC) system. In the VLC transmitter, the duty factor of the Manchester code was utilized for illumination control; in the VLC receiver, the spike signal from an RC-high pass filter was utilized to recover the transmitted signal whilst suppressing the 120-Hz noise arising from adjacent lighting lamps. Instead of the clock being transmitted in a separate channel, a syncmark signal was transmitted in front of each data byte and used as the reference time for transforming the Manchester code to non-return-to-zero (NRZ) data in the receiver. In experiments, the LED illumination was controlled in the range of approximately 12-84% of the constant wave (CW) light via changing of the duty factor from 10% to 90%. This scheme is useful for constructing indoor wireless sensor networks using LED light that is flicker-free and presents capability for illumination control.

We have evaluated the performance of strain-chirped fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based tunable dispersion compensator in a 40 Gb/s transmission link. In our proposed compensator, the value of dispersion could be changed from -353 ps/nm to -962 ps/nm by adjusting the rotation angle of the metal beam on which the FBG was mounted. In order to evaluate the effect of ripples in reflectivity and variations in passband of the FBG based dispersion compensator, transmission performance has been measured with our tunable dispersion compensator. Error-free transmission of a 40 Gb/s non-return-to-zero (NRZ) signal over conventional single-mode fiber (SMF) was achieved.

In this study, we propose a dimming control method for a visible light communication (VLC) system, in which the subcarrier on-off keying (OOK) modulation of Manchester code is used for data transmission. In the VLC transmitter, non-return-to-zero (NRZ) code data is transformed to Manchester code, which is OOK modulated with a subcarrier. Manchester code is used for flicker-free lighting; the duty factor is changed for dimming control, and the subcarrier is used for preventing the adjacent noise light interference. In the experiments, the dimming control was carried out from about 8%-92% of the continuous wave (CW) LED light. This configuration is simple and effective in constructing a VLC system for indoor wireless sensor networks with flicker-free illumination and dimming control capability without adjacent noise light interference.

Considering transition gating of the input unipolar NRZ signal, the equivalent linear time-invariant model has been derived for the PLL in the timing clock recovery circuits. The magnitude of the alignment and accumulated jitter has been found along a chain of repeaters. For the timing recovery circuit of 90 Mbps optical communication system, the computer simulation shows that, for the first stage of the chain, the alignment jiter and the accumulated jitter are of -5.1766 dB and for the 7-th stage, the alignment jitter and accumulated jitter have the value of -1.0193dB, 4.9053 dB respectively.

While three most important aspects of line codes are the de-free, the minimum-bandwidth, and the self-clocking properties, the only TIBr, VMDBr, RMD3r, RMD4r codes possess all of these properties. This paper is to report the results of an experimental performance study of VMDB5. The encoder and decoder of VMDB5 and the pulse shaper have been inplemented. Power spectra, eye patterns, and error probabilities are experimentally measured, confirming the theoreticla performance predictions. It has been observed that the NRZ pulse shaping reliable transmission is possible with no extra equalization even in teh case when the -3dB channel bandwith is only half the Nyquist bandwidth.

The threshold level of a receiver is analyzed for the simplification of system and the improvement of upstream data ratios in optical subscriber network of which the upstream date rate and the optical transmitted power are changed to meet the requested BER (Bit Error Rate) defined per interactive multimedia services. In asynchronous optical subscriber network of which the upstream to downstream data ratios are 1:1/2, 1:1/4, 1:1/8 and 1:1/16 with manchester coded downstream and NRZ (Non Return to Zero) downstream re-modulation, the BER performance is theoretically analyzed and it is performed by simulation with MATLAB according to the four types of downstream data for four models. The results have shown that in the cases which the upstream to downstream data ratios are 1:1/4, 1:1/8 and 1:1/16 the conventional receiver with threshold level of 1/2 can be applied regardless of average received optical powers and the BER is not much deteriorated compared with using the optimal threshold level. In the case that the upstream to downstream data ratio is 1:1/2 the threshold level in an optical receiver could be fixed at 1/3 and the BER is not much deteriorated compared with using the optimal threshold level as the average received optical power increases.

In this paper, we numerically investigated the optimum pump light power best compensating for pulse distortion due to both chromatic dispersion and self phase modulation (SPM) as a function of channel input power in 8 channel ${\times}$ 40 Gbps wavelength division multiplexing (WDM systems. Also we investigated the allowable maximum channel input power dependence on modulation format and fiber dispersion coefficient in the various pump light power of OPC. The considered WDM transmission system is based on path-averaged intensity approximation (PAIA) mid-span spectral inversion (MSSI) compensation method, which has highly-nonlinear dispersion shifted fiber (HNL-SDF) as nonlinear medium of optical phase conjugator (OPC) in the mid-way of total transmission line. We confirmed that optimal pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC depend on modulation format, initial channel input power, total transmission length and fiber dispersion. But optimal pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC must be selected to make power conversion ratio to almost unity. And we confirmed that, if we allow a 1 dB eye opening penalty (EOP), the tolerable maximum channel input power is increased by using RZ than NRZ as modulation format when pump light power of HNL-DSF OPC is not optimal value but another values.
