Gc. Wilson et al., ANALOG TRANSMISSION AT 1.55-MU-M USING LINEARIZED ELECTROABSORPTION MODULATOR DFB LASER AND FIBER AMPLIFIER, Electronics Letters, 31(22), 1995, pp. 1934-1935
Electrical predistortion is used to linearise an integrated 1.55 mu m
DFB laser/electroabsorption modulator, yielding a 77-channel CTB of -5
4.1 dBc and CSO of -61.3 dBc. No significant increase in distortion is
measured after Er-doped fibre amplification and propagation through 1
3 km of non-dispersion-shifted fibre.
