Abstract
We propose a new architecture for 10Â Gb/s upstream traffic in TDM-PON using externally injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser diodes (FP-LDs) in each optical network unit (ONU). Four directly modulated 2.5Â Gb/s FP-LDs were injection-locked by continuous wave (CW) carriers distributed from the optical line terminal (OLT). Hence, a total of 10Â Gb/s upstream traffic can be achieved. Experimental results show negligible power penalty at a transmission of 25Â km standard single mode fiber (SMF) without dispersion compensation. The performance of the injection-locked FP-LD is also studied.
