In this paper, we attempted a qualitative understanding of mutual injection locking without rigorous mathematics, and analyzed the proposed mutual injection locked light source. Also, a low-cost WDM-PON light source based on mutual injection locking using two unpolarized Fabry-Perot Laser Diodes (F-P LDs), was implemented. The RIN (Relative Intensity Noise) characteristic for the wavelength change of the F-P LD was measured, and when the variable wavelength range was 2.07 nm, it showed a RIN of at least -110 dB/Hz.

In this paper, a wavelength tunable light source based on mutually injected locking with two F-P LDs, has been constructed and then analyzed for wavelength shift and RIN (Relative Intensity noise) according to temperature. We have measured maximum about 2 nm for the wavelength shift and minimum -110dB/hz for the RIN. Also, the RIN and beating noise in eye patterns are increased by changing temperature high.
