TL;DR: In this paper, a balanced SCISSOR design with additional resonators was proposed to tune the optical carrier phase delay to provide a true-time delay for the broadband microwave signal.
Abstract: Significant performance improvement for photonic delay lines in microwave-photonics based on a new concept of separately tuning the optical carrier is proposed and analyzed. Optical microresonator delay lines using a balanced SCISSOR design with additional resonators to separately tune the carrier phase delay to provide a true-time-delay for the broadband microwave signal are presented. Significant improvements in broadband tunable delay and devices losses are predicted.

TL;DR: In this article, a system for transmitting digital information includes a transmitting apparatus (100) for generating an optical signal bearing digital information, a dispersive optical channel (104), and a receiving apparatus (110) for receiving the optical signal.
Abstract: A system (100) for transmitting digital information includes a transmitting apparatus (102) for generating an optical signal bearing digital information, a dispersive optical channel (104), and a receiving apparatus (110) for receiving the optical signal. The dispersive optical channel (104) is disposed to convey the optical signal from the transmitting apparatus (102) to the receiving apparatus (110). The transmitting apparatus includes an encoder (114) for encoding digital information into a series of blocks, each including a plurality of data symbols corresponding with one or more bits of digital information. A signal generator (118) generates a time-varying signal corresponding with each of said blocks. An optical transmitter (136) is arranged to apply the time-varying signal to an optical source (138) to produce an optical signal which includes an optical carrier and substantially only a single information bearing optical sideband in an optical frequency domain, the sideband corresponding with the time-varying signal. The receiving apparatus (110) includes an optical detector (146) for detecting the optical signal to produce a corresponding received time-varying electrical signal. The receiver further includes means (166) for generating a series of received data blocks from the time-varying electrical signal. An equaliser (168) performs an equalisation of received data symbols included in each data block to mitigate the effect of dispersion of the optical channel, thereby enabling the transmitted data symbols to be recovered.

TL;DR: In this article, optical phase modulators for simultaneous transmission of two independent baseband digital data signals or two independent subcarrier multiplexed signals are disclosed. But the authors do not consider the use of multiple modulated subcarriers.
Abstract: Optical communication methods and apparatus are disclosed for transmitting two or more optical signals with different optical carrier frequencies on a single optical fiber with high spectral efficiency. Each optical carrier is typically modulated with multiple modulated subcarriers. In one embodiment, an optical phase modulator provides cancellation of second order intermodulation products in each optical signal, thereby permitting the optical carrier frequencies to be spaced by 2f max , where f max is the maximum modulation frequency. In another embodiment, a single sideband optical phase modulator provides cancellation of second order intermodulation products and one signal sideband, thereby permitting the optical carrier frequencies to be spaced by f max . Quadrature optical phase modulators for simultaneous transmission of two independent baseband digital data signals or two independent subcarrier multiplexed signals are disclosed.

TL;DR: This paper intends to summarize some of the most interesting proposed modulation formats for high bit rate (especially 40 Gb/s) WDM transmissions.
Abstract: With the progress of optical communication systems, and especially the constraints brought by wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) transmissions and increased bit rates, new ways to convert the binary data signal on the optical carrier have been proposed. It appears clearly now that several of the methods proposed by research laboratories will be applied into commercial products soon due to the large improvements generated. This paper intends to summarize some of the most interesting proposed modulation formats for high bit rate (especially 40 Gb/s) WDM transmissions

TL;DR: A carrier phase-shifted (CPS) double sideband (DSB) modulation technique in radio-over-fiber (RoF) system is proposed and experimentally demonstrated.
Abstract: A carrier phase-shifted (CPS) double sideband (DSB) modulation technique in radio-over-fiber (RoF) system is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. By tuning the biases in a single-drive dual parallel Mach–Zehnder modulator (SD-DPMZM), the optical carrier in the DSB spectrum acquires additional phase shift. The transmittance response of a dispersive RoF link is thus being controlled and shifted in the frequency domain. Experiments successfully turned the maximum transmission frequency to 10 GHz and 15 GHz for both 25 and 39 km fiber links. This is also a highly linear scheme, of which a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 111.3 dB·Hz2/3 is experimentally obtained.
