Abstract
We compare the performances of three previously proposed methods to reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of the carrier-suppressed optical single-sideband (OSSB-SC) signal. PAPR of OSSB-SC signal becomes high due to the peaky Hilbert-transformed signal which is used for spectral suppression. Nonlinear phase shifts induced by high PAPR degrade OSSB-SC signal during fiber transmission. Previously, we proposed peak folding, peak clipping, and high-pass Hilbert transform methods to reduce the PAPR of OSSB-SC modulation. In this study, we numerically compare the effectiveness of proposed methods in a 10 Gbit/s non-return-to-zero (NRZ)-coded 100-km single-channel transmission link. Due to the reduced PAPR, peak folding and peak clipping can increase the self-phase modulation (SPM) threshold of the studied system by 2.40 dB and 2.63 dB respectively. The high-pass Hilbert transform method improves the SPM threshold by more than 9 dB.
