Abstract |
We have systematically designed and experimentally demonstrated the opto-electrical predistortion optical transmitter using microwave circuit modelling for reducing the nonlinearity of the distributed-feedback laser diode (DFD-LD). The DFB-LD is analyzed using microwave circuits model based on rate equations. Through the system-level simulation for predistortion method, the optimized characteristics of the RF components in the system are confirmed. The simulated and experimental results show the reduced distortion products. These results are analyzed as the evaluation parameters for the miniaturization and optimization of the opto-electrical predistortion method in radio-over-fiber systems. |
