Embodiment Construction

[0074] refer to Figures 1 to 4 , the first embodiment of the present invention provides a 16-QAM optical modulator 10 in the form of 2 n - A quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) optical modulator comprising an optical input 11 , a first optical modulation device 12 and a second optical modulation device 20 . In this embodiment, an optical signal to be modulated is received by an optical input 11 and coupled to a first optical modulation device 12, which applies a quadrature amplitude modulation scheme to the optical signal, thereby generating an intermediate optical signal. The intermediate optical signal is then fed to a second optical modulation device 20, which is configured to selectively rotate the phase of the intermediate optical signal. The 16-QAM modulated optical signal is thus output from the optical modulator 10, which has such Figure 4 The shown square constellation diagram 19 includes 16 constellation points 16 distributed on 4 quadrants of the constellation...

Abstract

A 2 n -QAM (e.g. 16-QAM) optical modulator 10 comprising cascaded I-Q modulators 22, 38. The first I-Q modulator 22 applies 2 n-2 (e.g. 4) QAM to an optical signal, having a constellation diagram with the 2 n-2 constellation points located in quadrant I. The second I-Q modulator 38 subsequently applies a quaternary phase-shift keying (QPSK) modulation scheme to the optical signal, thereby rotating the constellation points of the 2 n-2 -QAM modulation scheme to quadrants II, III and IV, to produce a 2 n -QAM modulation constellation diagram. The rotation causes the 2 n -QAM modulator to inherently apply four quadrant differential encoding to the optical signal. A method of 2 n -QAM optical modulation is also provided and optical signal transmission apparatus comprising the 2 n -QAM optical modulator.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to 2 n Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) Optical Modulator, 2 n The method of quadrature amplitude modulation and including 2 n - An optical signal transmission device for a QAM optical modulator. Background technique [0002] Quadrature amplitude modulation with 16 levels (16-QAM) is one of the candidate modulation formats for 100 gigabits per second (Gbit / s) transmission into optical fiber. It encodes four bits on a constellation of sixteen points, and transmits the in-phase and quadrature components of the signal with four different amplitude values. When considering the polarization-diverse 16-QAM format for transmission at 100 Gbit / s, the symbol rate required by the transmitter is 12.5 Gbaud. Even at this reduced symbol rate, the generation of multi-level drive signals can be complicated. A further complication arises from the necessity to apply differential digital encoding to the optical signal prior to opt...
