OFCs can be formed using numerous techniques such as optical modulation, laser mode locking and optical fiber recirculating loops. An optical frequency comb generator based on an optical fiber recirculation loop operating with a Mach-Zehnder modulator was experimentally investigated using different types of amplifiers as gain media. The idea is to compare the use of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) and their efficiency in aiding or contributing on the generation of spectral lines. The process efficiency associated with nonlinear effects, specially four-wave mixing, is the main advantage of using SOAs over EDFAs. Under the best operational conditions, an optical comb with up to 30 lines and spacing around 20 GHz was obtained by a SOA-based loop, where an ultralong SOA was used for the first time in such an application.","PeriodicalId":175865,"journal":{"name":"2019 SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference (IMOC)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122932971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, a $2times2$ Alamouti coder and decoder is implemented in the VC707 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) development board and its logical resources usage compared to those in the literature. In order to reduce the Hardware (HW) footprint of the proposed MIMO - Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) Alamouti system, a pipelined modular architecture is considered, in order to boost HW utilisation and performance of MIMO-OFDM systems. A single pair of Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT)/ Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is enough to process data for each MIMO antenna path. The achieved results show the importance of FPGA resource optimisation, demonstrating how depend coding and modulation are to hardware resources. Moreover, a Radio Frequency (RF) architecture is proposed to address $2 times2$ MIMO communications at 26 GHz.","PeriodicalId":175865,"journal":{"name":"2019 SBMO/IEEE MTT-S International Microwave and Optoelectronics Conference (IMOC)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123951641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This device can be used to design plasmonic devices such as couplers, power dividers, switches, ultracompact interferometers, among others. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the division of the signal between two output ports of the coupler is -3.8dB and the isolation of the fourth port is better than -20dB in the frequency band of 14%.
