Abstract

A new optical single sideband filter is presented to compensate for chromatic dispersion effects in fiber-wireless systems. The device is based on three dynamic Bragg gratings, which are generated in a photorefractive iron-doped indium phosphide (InP:Fe) crystal. This filter is controlled by the input optical double sideband signal itself, which makes it independent of the modulated optical carrier wavelength. In this paper, the principle of the device is presented and demonstrated. Experiments include a 14-km fiber transmission followed by a 3-m radio link carrying a 140-Mb/s binary phase-shift keyed data stream at 16 GHz.
