- We proposed and experimentally demonstrated a wavelength-space division multiplexing (WSDM) optical access network architecture with centralized optical carrier delivery utilizing multicore fibers (MCFs) and adaptive modulation based on reflective semiconductor amplifier (RSOA). In our experiment, five of the outer cores are used for undirectional downstream (DS) transmission only, whereas the remaining outer core is utilized as a dedicated channel to transmit upstream (US) signals. Optical carriers for US are delivered from the optical line terminal (OLT) to the optical network unit (ONU) via the inner core and then transmitted back to the OLT after amplification and modulation by the RSOA in the colorless ONU side. The mobile backhaul (MB) service is also supported by the inner core. Wavelengths used in US transmission should be different from that of the MB in order to avoid the Rayleigh backscattering effect in bidirectional transmission. With quadrature phase-shift keying-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (QPSK-OFDM) modulation format, the aggregation DS capacity reaches 250 Gb/s using five outer cores and ten wavelengths, and it can be further scaled to 1 Tb/s using 20 wavelengths modulated with 16 QAM-OFDM. For US transmission, 2.5 Gb/s QPSK-OFDM transmission can be achieved just using a low-bandwidth RSOA, and adaptive modulation is applied to the RSOA to further enhance the US data rate to 3.12 Gb/s. As an emulation of high-speed MB transmission, 48 Gb/s inphase and quadrature (IQ) modulated popularization division multiplexing (PDM)-QPSK signal is transmitted in the inner core of MCF and coherently detected in the OLT side. Both DS and US optical signals exhibit acceptable performance with sufficient power budget.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- We proposed a hybrid wavelength-space division multiplexing (WSDM) optical access network architecture utilizing multicore fibers (MCFs) with advanced modulation formats. As a proof of concept, we experimentally demonstrated a WSDM optical access network with duplex transmission using our developed and fabricated multicore (7-core) fibers and fan-in/fan-out device with 58.7km distance. With QPSK-OFDM modulation format, the aggregation downstream (DS) capacity reaches 250 Gb/s using 5 outer cores and it can be further scaled to 1Tb/s using 16QAM-OFDM. For upstream (US) transmission, wavelengths seeded from DS using the inner core are modulated with DMT signal adapted with the channel conditions and then transmitted back to the OLT through the 6th outer core. As an emulation of high speed mobile backhaul (MB) transmission, IQ modulated PDM-QPSK signal with 48Gb/s per wavelength is transmitted in the inner core of MCF and coherently detected in the OLT side. Both DS and US optical signal exhibit acceptable performance with sufficient power budget.
