Optical code-division multiple access system and optical signal processing
This thesis presents our recent researches on the development of coding devices, the
investigation of security and the design of systems in the optical cod-division multiple
access (OCDMA) systems. Besides, the techniques of nonlinear signal processing used
in the OCDMA systems fire our imagination, thus some researches on all-optical signal
processing are carried out and also summarized in this thesis.
Two fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based coding devices are proposed. The first coding
device is a superstructured FBG (SSFBG) using ±π/2-phase shifts instead of
conventional 0/π-phase shifts. The ±π/2-phase-shifted SSFBG en/decoders can not only
conceal optical codes well in the encoded signals but also realize the reutilization of
available codes by hybrid use with conventional 0/π-phase-shifted SSFBG en/decoders.
The second FBG based coding device is synthesized by layer-peeling method, which
can be used for simultaneous optical code recognition and chromatic dispersion
compensation.
Then, two eavesdropping schemes, one-bit delay interference detection and
differential detection, are demonstrated to reveal the security vulnerability of differential
phase-shift keying (DPSK) and code-shift keying (CSK) OCDMA systems.
To address the security issue as well as increase the transmission capacity, an
orthogonal modulation format based on DPSK and CSK is introduced into the OCDMA
systems. A 2 bit/symbol 10 Gsymbol/s transmission system using the orthogonal
modulation format is achieved. The security of the system can be partially guaranteed.
Furthermore, a fully-asynchronous gigabit-symmetric OCDMA passive optical
network (PON) is proposed, in which a self-clocked time gate is employed for signal
regeneration. A remodulation scheme is used in the PON, which let downstream and
upstream share the same optical carrier, allowing optical network units source-free. An
error-free 4-user 10 Gbit/s/user duplex transmission over 50 km distance is reazlied.
A versatile waveform generation scheme is then studied. A theoretical model is
established and a waveform prediction algorithm is summarized. In the demonstration,
various waveforms are generated including short pulse, trapezoidal, triangular and
sawtooth waveforms and doublet pulse.

In addition, an all-optical simultaneous half-addition and half-subtraction scheme is
achieved at an operating rate of 10 GHz by using only two semiconductor optical
amplifiers (SOA) without any assist light.
Lastly, two modulation format conversion schemes are demonstrated. The first
conversion is from NRZ-OOK to PSK-Manchester coding format using a SOA based
Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The second conversion is from RZ-DQPSK to RZ-OOK
by employing a supercontinuum based optical thresholder
Roadmap of optical communications
© 2016 IOP Publishing Ltd. Lightwave communications is a necessity for the information age. Optical links provide enormous bandwidth, and the optical fiber is the only medium that can meet the modern society's needs for transporting massive amounts of data over long distances. Applications range from global high-capacity networks, which constitute the backbone of the internet, to the massively parallel interconnects that provide data connectivity inside datacenters and supercomputers. Optical communications is a diverse and rapidly changing field, where experts in photonics, communications, electronics, and signal processing work side by side to meet the ever-increasing demands for higher capacity, lower cost, and lower energy consumption, while adapting the system design to novel services and technologies. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of this rich research field, Journal of Optics has invited 16 researchers, each a world-leading expert in their respective subfields, to contribute a section to this invited review article, summarizing their views on state-of-the-art and future developments in optical communications
Telecommunication Systems
This book is based on both industrial and academic research efforts in which a number of recent advancements and rare insights into telecommunication systems are well presented. The volume is organized into four parts: "Telecommunication Protocol, Optimization, and Security Frameworks", "Next-Generation Optical Access Technologies", "Convergence of Wireless-Optical Networks" and "Advanced Relay and Antenna Systems for Smart Networks." Chapters within these parts are self-contained and cross-referenced to facilitate further study
Roadmap on all-optical processing
The ability to process optical signals without passing into the electrical domain has always attracted the attention of the research community. Processing photons by photons unfolds new scenarios, in principle allowing for unseen signal processing and computing capabilities. Optical computation can be seen as a large scientific field in which researchers operate, trying to find solutions to their specific needs by different approaches; although the challenges can be substantially different, they are typically addressed using knowledge and technological platforms that are shared across the whole field. This significant know-how can also benefit other scientific communities, providing lateral solutions to their problems, as well as leading to novel applications. The aim of this Roadmap is to provide a broad view of the state-of-the-art in this lively scientific research field and to discuss the advances required to tackle emerging challenges, thanks to contributions authored by experts affiliated to both academic institutions and high-tech industries. The Roadmap is organized so as to put side by side contributions on different aspects of optical processing, aiming to enhance the cross-contamination of ideas between scientists working in three different fields of photonics: optical gates and logical units, high bit-rate signal processing and optical quantum computing. The ultimate intent of this paper is to provide guidance for young scientists as well as providing research-funding institutions and stake holders with a comprehensive overview of perspectives and opportunities offered by this research field
Modal and Polarization Qubits in Ti:LiNbO Photonic Circuits for a Universal Quantum Logic Gate
Lithium niobate photonic circuits have the salutary property of permitting
the generation, transmission, and processing of photons to be accommodated on a
single chip. Compact photonic circuits such as these, with multiple components
integrated on a single chip, are crucial for efficiently implementing quantum
information processing schemes. We present a set of basic transformations that
are useful for manipulating modal qubits in Ti:LiNbO photonic quantum
circuits. These include the mode analyzer, a device that separates the even and
odd components of a state into two separate spatial paths; the mode rotator,
which rotates the state by an angle in mode space; and modal Pauli spin
operators that effect related operations. We also describe the design of a
deterministic, two-qubit, single-photon, CNOT gate, a key element in certain
sets of universal quantum logic gates. It is implemented as a Ti:LiNbO
photonic quantum circuit in which the polarization and mode number of a single
photon serve as the control and target qubits, respectively. It is shown that
the effects of dispersion in the CNOT circuit can be mitigated by augmenting it
with an additional path. The performance of all of these components are
confirmed by numerical simulations. The implementation of these transformations
relies on selective and controllable power coupling among single- and two-mode
waveguides, as well as the polarization sensitivity of the Pockels coefficients
in LiNbO
