Abstract

Abstract In this manuscript, an attempt has been made to enhance the performance of colorless wavelength division multiplexed-passive optical network (WDM–PON) system using a combination of dual-drive Mach–Zehnder modulator and single sideband-suppressed carrier (SSB-SC) technique along with splicing. The proposed design makes use of SSB-SC technique for optical line terminal (OLT) as well as for optical network unit (ONU) that is generated by using dual-drive modulator which in turn reduces the expense for complete communication process. Suppressed RF signals with four channels at a bit rate of 10 Gbps for each channel are multiplexed before injecting into fiber span of 25 km at OLT side. Half of the downlink power is consumed for re-modulating the data signal at ONU side. The performance is further improved by using signal splicing method. Due to suppression in the carrier in this technique, there is no carrier Rayleigh scattering problem. The proposed model is compared with the existing one for error-free transmission of signal. The results revealed that the proposed model possess less value of bit error rate with the same value of received optical power as well as channel.
