Injection locking of Fabry-Pérot lasers and the temperature dependence of their emission in self-seeded WDM passive optical networks

The influence of temperature on coated (2%) and uncoated Fabry-Pérot laser output in a proposed colorless WDM system with self-seeding via modulation averaging reflector is studied. In particular, the connection between the information about the optical laser output from the laser integrated monitor photodetector and optical power output of the entire system with temperature change of the laser diode is investigated.
