Abstract A new and simple scheme of generating millimeter-wave (mm-wave) signal with dispersion tolerance and multi frequency operation is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which is based on a single polarization multiplexing binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) modulator. In our scheme, a sub-modulator on one branch of the modulator is worked at its quadrature transmission point (QTP) and driven by a clock signal, while the sub-modulator on the other branch is driven by baseband data. Experimental results show that after delivery over 80-km fiber, the bit error rate (BER) of the 6 Gbit/s on–off keying (OOK) modulation mm-wave signal can reach below 10−9. The scheme has the characteristics of dispersion tolerance and can be widely used in long-distance optical communication.

通过单个调制器生成耐色散毫米波信号

摘要 提出并实验证明了一种新的、简单的产生具有色散容限和多频操作的毫米波（mm-wave）信号的方案，该方案基于单偏振复用二进制相移键控（BPSK）调制器。在我们的方案中，调制器一个分支上的子调制器在其正交传输点 (QTP) 工作并由时钟信号驱动，而另一分支上的子调制器由基带数据驱动。实验结果表明，经过80km光纤传输后，6Gbit/s开关键控（OOK）调制毫米波信号的误码率（BER）可以达到10-9以下。该方案具有耐色散特性，可广泛应用于长距离光通信。
