Abstract
We have experimentally and theoretically demonstrated the transmission performance of a feedforward optical transmitter using an external light injection technique. The feedforward compensation method shows 31Â dB intermodulation distortion suppression and 2.2Â dB noise reduction. The feedforward architecture used a wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser diode whose side-mode suppression ratio about 35Â dB over a 12-nm range. The suppression characteristics of the intermodulation distortion for various wavelength differences and transmission lengths were measured and analyzed as the evaluation criteria for the system performance in WDM/SCM based radio-over-fiber systems.
