In this paper, the subspace blind equalization algorithm is used to preprocess M-ary phase shift keying(MPSK) subcarrier modulation signal in receiver. Mountain clustering is adopted to get the clustering centers of MPSK modulation constellation diagram, and the modulation order is automatically identified through the k-nearest neighbor(KNN) classifier. The experiment has been done under four different weather conditions. Experimental results show that the convergent of constellation diagram is improved effectively after using the subspace blind equalization algorithm, which means that the accuracy of modulation recognition is increased. The correct recognition rate of 16 PSK can be up to 85% in any kind of weather condition which is mentioned in paper. Meanwhile, the correct recognition rate is the highest in cloudy and the lowest in heavy rain condition.展开更多

It is referred as SPC-APPM code, which is decoded with an iterativc demodulator-decoder using standard turbo-decoding techniques. Investigations show that the scheme has the advantages of low encoding and decoding complexities, good performance and flexible code rate for all rates above I/2. Meanwhile, simulation results demonstrate that the SPC-APPM provides the performance similar to the low-density parity-check-APPM （LDPC-APPM）, superior to the LDPC-PPM and product accumulate code-PPM （PA-PPM）, although inferior to serially concatenated PPM （SCPPM）. At the bit error rate （BER） of 105, the performance of SPC-APPM is about 0.7 dB better than LDPC-PPM and 1.2 dB better than PA-PPM.展开更多

文摘In this paper, the key technologies and research progress of chaotic optical communication are reviewed. We first discuss the chaos generation methods based on different nonlinear components. Then we focus on the frontiers of chaotic optical communications, including how to improve the security, and the development about the transmission capacity and distance of chaotic optical communication in laboratory and field. At last, we discuss limitations and potentials of chaotic optical communications and draw a conclusion.

文摘With progress in fabrication technology, integrated photonics plays an increasingly important role in high-speed optical communications, from monolithic transmitters and receivers for advanced optical modulation formats to on-chip subsystems for optical signal processing. We review our recent work on the highly tailorable physical properties of silicon waveguides for communication and signal processing applications, using slot structures. Controllable chromatic dispersion, nonlinearity, and polarization properties of the waveguides are presented, and the enabled wideband wavelength conversion, optical tunable delay, and signal processing of polarization-multiplexing data channels are discussed.

文摘Due to the proliferation of underwater vehicles and sensors,underwater wireless optical communication(UWOC)is a key enabler for ocean exploration with a strong reliance on short-range bandwidth-intensive communications.A stable optical link is of primary importance for UWOC.A compact,low-power,and low-cost acquisition,pointing,and tracking(APT)system is proposed and experimentally demonstrated to realign the optical link within 0.04 s,even when the UWOC transmitter and receiver are in relative motion.The system successfully achieves rapid auto-alignment through a 4 m tap water channel with a relatively large number of bubbles.Furthermore,the required minimum illumination value is measured to be as low as7.1 lx,implying that the proposed APT scheme is robust to dim underwater environments.Meanwhile,mobility experiments are performed to verify the performance of the APT system.The proposed system can rapidly and automatically align moving targets in complex and unstable underwater environments,which can potentially boost the practical applications of UWOC.

The effects of domain errors caused by the ro om-temperature electric poling process are checked. The relationship between the linewidth and the block length is also discussed.

文摘With the rapid deployment of Next-Generation Networks(NGN),the research community has initiated discussions on an entirely new suite of optical enabling techniques.To pave the way for the development of future wireless networks,this article aims to unify the existing infrared,visible light,and ultraviolet subbands while also exploring the potential of the Petahertz(PHz)band to support extremely bandwidth-thirsfy telepresence style applications.Our focus is on the emerging Petahertz Communication(PetaCom)framework,scenario-dependent propagation channels,modulation schemes,system performance,multiple access techniques,and networking.We conclude with a range of PetaCom challenges and open research issues.
文摘Optical Wireless Communication(OWC)is a new trend in communication systems to achieve large bandwidth,high bit rate,high security,fast deployment,and low cost.The basic idea of the OWC is to transmit data on unguided media with light.This system requires multi-carrier modulation such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM).This paper studies optical OFDM performance based on Intensity Modulation with Direct Detection(IM/DD)system.This system requires a non-negativity constraint.The paper presents a framework for wireless optical OFDM system that comprises(IM/DD)with different forms,Direct Current biased Optical OFDM(DCO-OFDM),Asymmetrically Clipped Optical OFDM(ACO-OFDM),Asymmetrically DC-biased Optical OFDM(ADO-OFDM),and Flip-OFDM.It also considers channel coding as a tool for error control,channel equalization for reducing deterioration due to channel effects,and investigation of the turbulence effects.The evaluation results of the proposed framework reveal enhancement of performance.The performance of the IM/DD-OFDM system is investigated over different channel models such as AWGN,log-normal turbulence channel model,and ceiling bounce channel model.The simulation results show that the BER performance of the IM/DD-OFDM communication system is enhanced while the fading strength is decreased.The results reveal also that Hamming codes,BCH codes,and convolutional codes achieve better BER performance.Also,two algorithms of channel estimation and equalization are considered and compared.These algorithms include the Least Squares(LS)and the Minimum Mean Square Error(MMSE).The simulation results show that the MMSE algorithm gives better BER performance than the LS algorithm.

文摘An electro-absorption(EA)modulator is one of key components for optical fiber communications due to the high speed,small size,low voltage and integration ability with other semiconductor devices.A 40 Gb/s InGaAsP/InP multiplequantum-well(MQW)EA modulator monolithically integrated with a semiconductor optical amplifier(SOA)was fabricated for digital communications.The modulator capacitance was reduced to obtain 40 GHz bandwidth,and the SOA section helped reduce the insertion loss from 18 dB to 3 dB.InGaAlAs/InP MQW EA modulators have also been fabricated and characterized for analog optical fiber communications.A low driving voltage of 2.7 V and high spurious free dynamic range of 107 dB·Hz2/3 were estimated by static and dynamic measurements.
