To mitigate the reduction in receiver sensitivity resulting from co-transmitted carriers in self-coherent systems, a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) was deployed for pre-amplification with a noise figure of 7.5dB and a small-signal gain of 30dB. As a proof-of-concept, a system experiment of pre-amplified 25-GBaud 16-QAM SC-PON is demonstrated in the downstream, achieving a data rate of 100 Gb/s/\u0000<inline-formula> <tex-math>$lambda $ </tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000 over 20-km single-mode fiber (SMF) with a receiver sensitivity of -22dBm.

Our results show that a simplified OEO-RC can meet or exceed the performance of more computationally complex OEO-RC and similar delayed all-photonic RC on benchmark tests, likely indicating suitability for the architecture to process real-world, complex data.","PeriodicalId":13065,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Photonics Technology Letters","volume":"36 23","pages":"1353-1356"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142450894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this letter, we experimentally demonstrate a novel receiver-side perturbation approach to cancel the self-phase modulation and cross-phase modulation for superchannel systems using three independent receivers. With the inverse perturbation theory, we develop a nonlinear compensation model that does not require knowing the transmitted symbols and therefore avoids the penalty from the estimation error.
