960-km SSMF Transmission of 105.7-Gb/s PDM 3-PAM Using Directly Modulated VCSELs and Coherent Detection
06 May 2013
Using digital coherent detection, we successfully demonstrate 500-km standard single-mode-fiber (SSMF) transmission of a 105.7-Gb/s line rate signal generated by direct modulation of 1.5 micrometer VCSELs and polarization multiplexing with 33.35-Gbaud 3-level signals.
