Abstract
In this paper, we experimentally compare the performance of two different narrowband interference suppression schemes in 120 Gb/s intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) system with discrete multi-tone (DMT) signal transmission for intra-data center interconnect (Intra-DCI). Digital pre-equalization and DFT-spread techniques are applied for system bandwidth limitation induced signal distortion compensation and signal peak to average power ratio (PAPR) reduction, respectively. Null-subcarriers reservation (NSR) and adaptive notch filter (ANF) techniques are compared during the suppression of digital-to-analog convertor (DAC) clock leakage induced narrowband interference. 1.2 dB and 1.8 dB DMT receiver sensitivity improvements can be achieved at a bit-error rate of 3.8 × 10-3 in optical back-to-back (OBTB) transmission when optimized NSR and ANF schemes are applied for narrowband interference cancellation, respectively. After 2-km single mode fiber (SMF) transmission, the required received optical power (ROP) of DMT signal with optimized NSR and ANF for narrowband interference cancellation at BER of 3.8 × 10-3 are -6.5 dBm and -7.1 dBm, respectively. Obviously, ANF outperforms NSR scheme in narrowband interference cancellation for DMT system.
