Abstract
Reports to date indicate that the composite second-order (CSO) distortion experienced in AM-SCM optical analog video transmission systems is caused by the coupling of the gain tilt of the EDFA with laser chirp [1,2]. Reference 3 indicated that the measured loss tilt value of the detuned optical bandpass filter that offset the gain tilt distortion was larger than the gain tilt.
