Description
The present invention relates to a receiver model for an optical transmission system, and more particularly to a receiver model for an optical transmission system using intensity modulation / direct detection using an Alamouti space-time code modified in the form of polarization- (PMD) impairments by using a polarization diversity multiplex (PDM) gain in an (IM / DD) optical transmission system. And an optical transmission method and system using the same.
As the demand for fiber channel capacity increases to over 40 Gbps, the performance of today's high-speed fiber-based optical communication systems is expected to overcome capacity limitations due to polarization mode dispersion (PMD). On the other hand, polarization mode dispersion (PMD) gives the diversity that can enhance the channel capacity by using polarization multiplexing (PDM). The simple polarization multiplexing (PDM) technique multiplexes two optical data streams on two orthogonal polarization modes and demultiplexes them to orthogonally cross at the receiving end. However, this technique does not meet the main requirements of the receiver to accurately compensate for fast polarization rotations, which can lead to polarized crosstalk in optical fiber transmission systems.
Therefore, most of the direct detection systems use a large-capacity, high-cost LiNbO3 (niobate) polarization converter and a polarization beam splitter (PBS) attached thereto in order to dynamically adjust the state of polarization (SOP) , polarization beam splitter (PC) and polarization controller. This technique is described in B. Koch et al., &Quot; Versatile endless optical polarization controller / tracker / demultiplexer " (Opt. Express 22 (7), 8259-8276 (2014) compensator for 112 Gb / s direct-detect PDM RZ-DQPSK systems "(J. Lightwave Technol. 28 (22), 3282-3293 (2010)).
This commercial solution attempt has not been realized since seamless tracking of the polarization state (SOP) in long polarized mode dispersion (PMD) damaged fibers is nearly impossible. Optical coherent detection techniques can simultaneously perform polarization multiplexing (PDM) demultiplexing and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) penalty compensation using digital electrical processing. These techniques are described in Jeffrey T. Rahn et al., "Real-time PMD tolerance measurements of a PIC-based 500 Gb / s coherent optical modem", J. Lightwave Technol. 30 (17), 2907-2912 ≪ / RTI > However, optical coherent communication systems are very complex, costly and require accurate channel estimation to handle high capacity channels at data rates above 10 Gbps.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided an optical transmission system using specimen optical coding for polarization multiplexed optical transmission, comprising: an encoder for generating a pair of symbols (S 1 , S 2 ) orthogonally coded from an input signal; A laser diode for generating a laser beam; A polarizing beam splitter for generating a beam separated into horizontal and vertical polarized lights from the laser beam; Two modulators for modulating each symbol using the beams of the horizontally polarized light and the vertically polarized light; (S 1 , S 2 ) modulated by the modulators in a first symbol interval and transmits the combined symbols S 1 , S 2 of the horizontally polarized light and the vertical polarized light modulated by the modulators in a first symbol interval, And vertically polarized symbols (
, S 1 ).The optical transmission system decodes a code according to Alamouti-type polarization-time coding (APTC) using horizontal and vertical polarization currents of each symbol interval without estimating channel state information (CSI) at the receiving side And estimates the received symbol.
Each of the modulators is a Mach-Zehnder modulator.
The input signal is a non-return-to-zero ON-OFF keying (NRZ-OOK) signal.

The estimated symbol
Is an equalized symbol.The decoder estimates each symbol using one-bit delay-and-add and one-bit delay-and-subtract filters.
According to the optical transmission method and system using the specimen optical coding for the polarization multiplexing optical transmission according to the present invention, it is possible to provide an IM / DD (Optical Phase Locked Loop) using Alamouti type specimen optical coding (APTC), which is difficult due to polarization crosstalk and polarization mode dispersion The polarization diversity gain can be used in the environment. Because of the unified nature of the polarization mode dispersion (PMD) channel, the present invention can mitigate polarized crosstalk without a dynamic polarization controller (PC) on the receiver side.
In addition, the decoding complexity in the present invention is significantly lower than other specimen optical techniques. This is because the optical channel estimator can be eliminated by using the optical channel model as a 2x2 MIMO model in the polarization mode dispersion (PMD) channel.

First we will briefly describe Alamouti coding. Alamouti coding is described by S. M. Alamouti in the journal IEEE J. Select. Areas Commun. 16 (8), 1451-1458 (1998). &Quot; A simple transmitter diversity scheme for wireless communications " Alamouti coding does not need to know about the channel conditions at the transmitter and is designed for applications in the wireless domain to exploit spatial diversity capacity gains with the use of space-time coding.
The original Alamouti coding can be applied directly to the optical coherent system which exhibits the main results in mitigating polarization mode dispersion (PMD). Expression 16 (18), 14163-14172 (2008)) by E. Ivan B. Djordjevic et al., &Quot; Alamouti-type polarization-time coding in coded-modulation schemes with coherent detection & In this paper, we propose a new method for complex coherent detections (PDL), which is related to the polarization dependent loss (PDL) and the cost of accurate channel estimation. Express 21 (19), 22773-22790 (2013)).
In general Alamouti (Alamouti) coding principle, since the transmission to detect the negative (negatives) and a pair (conjugates) of the signal, intensity modulation (IM / DD) (intensity modulation ) / direct detection (direct detection) optical transmission system, It can not be implemented directly. Nevertheless, the IM / DD system only handles non-negative real-valued signals in the time domain. Modified Alamouti coding techniques are described by Simon and Vilnrotter in "Alamouti-type space-time coding for free-space optical communication with direct detection" (IEEE Trans. Wireless Commun. 4 (1), 35-39 ), Which can utilize channel capacity from space-time diversity in a free space IM / DD optical system. Free space channel fading is very similar to that observed in wireless channels. The same technique can be applied with polarization-time diversity Alamouti coding as presented here. However, implementing polarization multiplexed (PDM) transmissions in an IM / DD optical system without a polarization controller or optical channel estimator requires a differential group delay (DGD, differential group delay) is extremely difficult.
The Alamouti-type polarization-time coding (APTC) -IM / DD technique according to the present invention can be implemented in a polarization multiplexed (PDM) capable IM / DD transmission system in which Alamouti type coding can be embodied It is proposed based on the theoretical modeling to show the method. Here, by using the optical channel model as a 2x2 MIMO system, polarization multiplexing (PDM) and polarization crosstalk can be alleviated in common.
In optical fibers, polarization diversity is used to obtain APTC throughput enhancement. Hereinafter, the polarization diversity channel model will be described first and a method of applying the model to the APTC-IM / DD system will be described.
≪ Optical fiber model with polarization diversity >
Optical fiber channel models with polarization diversity include for coupling in fibers with random polarization state (SOP) rotation and weak birefringence. Here, the optical fiber channel represents the random direction of the polarization state (SOP) and represents the differential group delay (DGD) between the two orthogonal polarization modes. This property is referred to as a polarization mode dispersion (PMD) channel model. In short single mode fiber (SMF), differential group delay (DGD) is non-uniform and additive since there is no polarization state (SOP) random coupling. However, in typical communication systems, such as access networks, terrestrial networks, submarine cable systems, etc., the fiber lengths range from tens to hundreds of kilometers.
Figure 1 is a series of various birefringent segments having random rotations of birefringence axes to illustrate the physical model of polarization multiplexing (PDM) for long optical fibers, where light propagates from left to right.
Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) of long-haul fibers is often seen as a sequence of multiple birefringent segments. The birefringent axes and sizes of these segments change randomly, which results in random coupling between the fast axis and the slow axis in the fiber as in Fig. Thus, the differential group delay (DGD) of long-haul fibers does not increase linearly along the fiber length. Instead, the increase in differential group delay (DGD) in the fiber can be studied as a three-dimensional random walk and the average differential group delay (DGD) is approximated as the square root of the propagation distance . The polarization mode dispersion (PMD) of the long-distance fiber can be expressed by the following equation (1): " (1) " The channel response function H (?) Can be modeled using a Jones matrix.

In Equation (1), N is the number of fiber segments (natural number) and? Is the optical frequency (rad / sec). τ n is the differential group delay (DGD) of the birefringent segment, θ n is the angle between the principle axes of the n-th and n-1 th segments and is randomly uniformly distributed between [0, π] This model characterizes the polarization mode dispersion (PMD) damage of all orders including the differential phase delay (DPD) and the differential group delay (DGD) of the 0th and first orders respectively.

Here, the last three portions in Equations (7) and (8) represent detected electrical noise, and {.} Represents polarized crosstalk. Generally, in order to decode an Alamouti code, channel state information (CSI) including the phase and size information of a signal in a 2-input 1-output (2x1) channel receiver is required. However, the present invention shows that it is possible to decode the APTC-IM / DD code without using the CSI estimation even with the use of the 2-input 1-output (2x1) channel. That is, the receiver can estimate the received symbol by decoding the code according to APTC using the horizontal and vertical polarization currents of each symbol interval without estimating the channel state information. Further, in a general IM / DD transmission system, phase information is lost in the detection process due to the square-law nature of the photodetector. PDM transmission in an IM / DD transmission system is difficult due to the random coupling between two orthogonal polarizations due to the random direction of the polarization state (SOP), even though there is no differential group delay (DGD). Therefore, it is desirable to eliminate or reduce polarized crosstalk in order to reduce the demultiplex penalty.
At a negligible polarization dependent loss (PDL) level, a frequency dependent zone matrix (Jones matrix) is unified as shown in equation (1). therefore,

In order to verify the performance of the APTC-IM / DD method of the present invention in a PDM-capable IM / DD transmission situation with polarization mode dispersion (PMD) impairment, NRZ-OOK modulation with a wavelength of 1550 nm in the NRZ- A signal is generated. For example, the NRZ-OOK modulated signal may be word length 2 15 - 1 and may be generated at 10 Gbps, 40 Gbps, or the like using a pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) generator. In turn, the NRZ-OOK modulated signal is encoded in the
(PC-IM) system with a polarization beam splitter (PBS) behind an optimally tuned polarization controller (PC), and the following three systems: a general IM / DD system / DD), and an Alamouti type specimen optical coding (APTC) based IM / DD system (APTC-IM / DD) of the present invention.
3A is a diagram for explaining a general IM / DD system (IM / DD).
3B is a view for explaining an IM / DD system (PC-IM / DD) having a polarization beam splitter (PBS) behind an optimally adjusted polarization controller (PC).
The general IM / DD system (IM / DD) of FIG. 3A and the PC-IM / DD system of FIG. 3B do not use two orthogonal polarized beams, and the
The PC-IM / DD system has a polarization beam splitter (PBS) behind a polarization controller (PC) optimally tuned between an optical bandpass filter (OBPF) on the receiver side and a photodetector (PD).
In the PC-IM / DD system of FIG. 3B, one polarized light (horizontal polarization) is detected to calculate a BER (Bit Error Rate). This assumes that the polarization controller PC is able to track the exact polarization state (SOP) of the received signal so that the signal components received at the other polarization axis (vertical axis) may increase to some extent, but to a negligible degree, the ASE noise power Because.
4 is a graph comparing BER results for optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) in a 40 Gbps optical fiber transmission system with differential group delay (DGD) of 8.5 ps.
In FIG. 4, a signal is transmitted at a transmission rate of 40 Gbps on a PMD-damaged SMF path with a polarization mode dispersion (PMD) coefficient of 0.2 ps / sqrt (km), corresponding to an average differential group delay (DGD) of 8.5 ps. BER results for OSNR are shown. As shown in the drawing, for each of the general IM / DD system, the PC-IM / DD system, and the APTC-IM / DD system, in pre-FEC (pre-forward error correction) BER 10-3, the OSNR value is 14.6 dB, 13.72 dB, and 11.8 dB, respectively. It can be seen that the APTC-IM / DD system of the present invention has a remarkable performance improvement of 2.8 dB and 1.92 dB compared with the general IM / DD system, PC-IM / DD system and APTC-IM / DD system . Thus, it can be seen that the PC-free APTC method as in the present invention not only shows a strong recovery against PMD damage, but also reduces polarized crosstalk to a tolerable level.
5 is a graph showing the results of first-order PMD tolerance for differential group delay (DGD) after transmission over various length PMD-damaged SMF paths in the range of 0 to 7200 km. That is, the results of OSNR required to obtain 10 -3 pre-FEC BER for differential group delays (DGD) are shown. At 40 Gbps and 10 Gps, the results for a typical IM / DD system, a PC-IM / DD system, and an APTC-IM / DD system, respectively, are shown. Polarization mode dispersion (PMD) channels in simulation follow a higher-order PMD model. It is known that, in higher-order PMD channels, average differential group delay (DGD) and frequency dependence increase with increasing transmission distances in fixed PMD coefficients. In the simulation, the PMD coefficient of each SMF path is assumed to be 0.2 ps / sqrt (km).
At a transmission rate of 40 Gbps, the APTC-IM / DD method of the present invention gains about 3.0 dB over a general IM / DD system in the case of B2B (back-to-back) with DGD = This is because the two polarizations are used at the
In the case of the PC-IM / DD system, there is a gain of about 0.6 dB compared with the IM / DD system due to the noise canceling effect. In the 0 ps? DGD? 6 ps region where the DGD is low, the APTC-IM / DD system of the present invention has more tolerances than the general IM / DD system and the PC-IM / DD system. This is because the standard deviation of H x ( y ) x ( y ) (ω) is about 0.29 rad << π in a low DGD region with a transmission distance of 800 km. This shows the effectiveness of the approximation in (9). Simulation results show that the APTC-IM / DD method of the present invention can perform polarization demultiplexing without a PC. However, in the high DGD region (8 ps < = DGD < = 17 ps), the APTC-IM / DD system shows more dependence on DGD because this approximation begins to lose effectiveness in this region. The main cause is interchannel crosstalk that grows with increasing DGD. Generally, depending on the presence of DGD, the polarization state (SOP) of the polarization multiplexed signals in the middle of the symbol interval changes rapidly as opposed to unmultiplexed signals. For a zero demultiplexing penalty, the rising and falling edges of the multiplexed signal must be aligned in time. In the high DGD region, the polarization multiplexed signals are heavily dispersed over time, resulting in a high OSNR penalty.
Next, we see a case where the data transmission rate is reduced to 10 Gbps and the transmission is carried out from 0 to 7200 km. At this time, it can be grasped as a low DGD region in the case of the transmission path (for example, SMF-28 links). In FIG. 5, the graph for 10 Gbps is consistent with the tendency seen in the low DGD region for 40 Gbps, except that there is an improvement in the OSNR requirement of almost 6 dB at the same BER performance of 10 -3 . This is because the data transmission rate has been reduced to 1/4.
As described above, in the optical transmission system using the specimen optical coding for the polarization multiplexing optical transmission of the present invention, the modified Alamouti type specimen optical coding (APTC) of the specimen optical coding type is used to perform polarization multiplexing PDM) gain. This makes it possible to prevent polarization mode dispersion (PMD) damage.
