Abstract

Coherent technology is a promising solution for future 100-Gb/s and even 200-Gb/s single-wavelength time-division multiplexing passive optical network (TDM-PON) systems. One of the key issues for coherent TDM-PON is the upstream burst-mode amplification. The limited resolution of the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) makes it challenging to detect burst signals with widely varying power levels. Local oscillator (LO) power adjustment is a promising solution to this problem. In the present study, we verified the feasibility of LO power adjustment for adaptive amplification in a 200-G coherent TDM-PON system. We investigated the overall performance of the system under different implementation conditions, such as ADC sampling scales, TIA MGC mode control voltages, LO optical power levels, and the received optical power (ROP). Simulation and experimental results indicated that LO power adjustment can widen the dynamic range of the coherent PON system. As a proof of concept, we tested the system performance with continuous-mode signals and signals of isolated patterns with a burst-mode data frame. The dynamic range was extended to >30 dB via LO power adjustment, with 38- and 37-dB power budgets for 200-Gb/s/λ coherent TDM-PON continuous signals and signals of isolated patterns, respectively, after a 50-km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF).
