In this paper, low cost solution based on RSOAs is proposed for a high capacity 32 × 32 channel, 20 km, FTTH duplex link employing triple play services. Here, downstream transmitters generate a 2.5-Gbps NRZ signal which is routed to both receivers and RSOA-based upstream transmitters. The RSOA modulates this signal with a 1.25-Gbps NRZ signal that effectively overwrites the downstream signal and then it is transmitted back over the same 20 km of bidirectional fiber, where it is routed to receivers at the CO. The proposed model completely eliminates the requirement of separate lasers for upstream communication which makes the system very cost effective. The high-pass filtering effect of the RSOA becomes predominant at higher input powers which has been used as an advantage here to effectively suppress the downstream signal. The impact of RSOA input power and extinction ratio of the downstream signal have been investigated and reported.
