Abstract
A FSK coherent lightwave transmission system is attractive because the modulation signal can be easily created by direct current injection into a laser diode and high sensitivity can be achieved.1 The transmitter laser requires a wide, flat frequency modulation characteristic as well as a narrow linewidth. Conventional DFB lasers have a nonuniform FM response resulting from thermal and carrier effects.
