Q2. What are the contributions in "Novel power efficient optical ofdm based on hartley transform for intensity-modulated direct-detection systems" ?
The authors present a novel optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing ( O-OFDM ) scheme, suitable for intensity-modulated direct-detection systems, where the modulation/demodulation processing takes advantage of the fast Hartley transform algorithm. The authors demonstrate that asymmetrically clipping ( AC ) technique can also be applied to DHT-based OFDM ; the signal can be transmitted without the need of a DC bias, resulting in a power-efficient system, not affected by clipping noise.
Q3. What is the way to achieve the same performance?
With a DHT of the same order and using a real constellation with lower size, the same data sequence at the same bit rate can be transmitted, adopting either DC-biased or ACO solutions.
Q4. How can the signal be asymmetrically clipped?
If only the odd subcarriers are modulated, the signal can be correctly recovered and all the clipping noise falls into the even subcarriers.
Q5. How can the DHT-OFDM signal be recovered without clipping noise?
With a suitable choice of the subcarriers to be modulated, the DHT-based OFDM signal can be clipped at zero level and correctly recovered without clipping noise.
Q6. How many additions are required for the radix-2 algorithm?
In the case of radix-2 algorithm, reported in [25], for both the decimation-in-time and decimation-in-frequency, the number of multiplications required by the DHT is and the number of additions is , with the transform order.
Q7. Why is the BER curve of Fig. 8 different from the one in Fig.?
8. However, due to the AC, which reduces the recovered symbols to half of the original values (see Fig. 6), in ACO-OFDM 3 dB more power is required compared to a bipolar system, using the same constellation [29].
Q8. Why is the relation between electrical and optical power easily derived?
Due to the Bussgang’s theorem and the considerations reported in [14], [28], and [29], the relation between electrical and optical power can be easily derived for both AC and DC-biased O-OFDM systems.
