Multi-modulation Compatible Miniaturization System for FSO Communication Assisted by Chirp-Managed Laser.
Optics express(2022)
摘要
In recent years, the thriving satellite laser communication industry has been severely hindered by the limitations of incompatible modulation formats and restricted Size Weight and Power (SWaP). A multi-modulation compatible method serving for free-space optical (FSO) communication has been proposed assisted by chirp-managed laser (CML). The corresponding demonstration system has been established for realizing free-switching between intensity (OOK) and phase modulation (RZ-DPSK). The feasibility and performance of system have been evaluated sufficiently when loading with 2.5 and 5 Gbps data streams, respectively. Additionally, a control-group system has been operated utilizing Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) for comparison between CML-based and MZM-based compatibility solutions. The OOK receiving sensitivities of CML-based system are -47.02 dBm@2.5 Gbps and -46.12 dBm@5 Gbps at BER of 1×10-3 which are 0.62 dB and 1.11 dB higher than that of MZM; the receiving sensitivities of RZ-DPSK are -50.12 dBm@2.5 Gbps and -47.03 dBm@5 Gbps which are 0.79 dB and 0.47 dB higher than that of MZM respectively. Meanwhile, CML-based transmitter abandoned the traditional modulator and its complicated supporting devices which can effectively contribute to the reduction of SWaP. The CML-based system has been proven to have the compatibility between intensity and phase modulation while also possesses a miniaturized design. It may provide fresh thinking to achieve a practical miniaturization system for satisfying the requirements of space optical network in future.
