Abstract
We experimentally demonstrate high-speed optical pseudorandom bit sequence (PRBS) multiplexing with coarse and fine bit-rate tuning capability and a switchable order using optical delays. Data multiplexing of and is shown, each with a tunable rate using a conversion/dispersion-based continuously tunable optical delay and tunable PRBS order with large switchable fiber delays. A 7% bit-rate tunability, i.e., and , is shown for both and PRBS. The rf spectra before and after multiplexing are measured in each case and show a suppression ratio of , exhibiting the expected PRBS spectral characteristics.
