Abstract
The 112Gb/s dual-carrier differential quadrature phase shift keying (DC-DQPSK) optical transceiver, which does not need digital signal processing and coherent detection, is proposed for cost-effective 100G transport solution. In this paper, we describe upgrade schemes of 10Gb/s-based WDM optical links by adopting 112Gb/s DC-DQPSK transceiver, while the dispersion of the optical links is compensated 100% at each span. Method of introducing the DC-DQPSK signal into single grid of 100GHz spaced WDM link is demonstrated. Performance sufficient for error-free operation after forward error correction is achieved over 640km standard single mode fiber (SSMF) link. In another method, we experimentally investigate the transmission performance with co-propagating 10.7Gb/s on-off-keying (OOK) signals over 1000km of SSMF when the dual carriers occupy two channel grids separately. Excellent tolerance to the nonlinearities impacted by the OOK signals and low optical signal-to-noise ratio requirement are verified to demonstrate superior transmission performance in 10Gb/s-based WDM links.
