Abstract

As the demand for mobile Internet capacity explodes, the research on fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems has gradually deepened, which has stringent requirements for latency and transmission capacity, especially in the section called mobile fronthaul (MFH). Wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) is an attractive technology for 5G MFH which requires an auxiliary management and control channel (AMCC) to achieve efficient network deployment. In previous studies, more research has been done on AMCC superimposition methods and transmission performance on 10 Gbps WDN-PON systems, and the role of AMCC in wavelength management has been studied at the system level. In this paper, we realize non-linear baseband modulation of AMCC signals up to 20 Mbps in a single wavelength 25-Gbps PON system through the distributed feed-back laser and Mach-Zehnder modulator. At the receiving end, we propose a low-complexity interference cancellation method to suppress the interference caused by WDM-PON signals and significantly reduce the bit error rate of AMCC signals. The method realizes a simplified scheme to reconstruct the PON signals by analyzing the characteristics of nonlinear modulation and the reconstructed signals can be applied to the original AMCC signals through filtering and subtraction to eliminate interference. These operations have low complexity and can be easily implemented by analog circuits, thus making it an effective way to improve the quality of AMCC signals. With the help of the proposed method, AMCC transmission at 20 Mbps can be achieved with different modulation depths, which is very promising for 5G MFH.
