Experimental Demonstration of Full-Duplex DOCSIS Signal Transmissions over a Wireline/Wireless-Fibre Access Network

• A fibre-radio access network architecture for simultaneous wireline and wireless transmissions of data over cable service interface specification (DOCSIS) signals is presented. An all-optical harmonic up-conversion technique using a dual-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (DD-MZM) is employed at the central station while an InGaAsP/InGaAsP multiple quantum well (MQW) asymmetric Fabry-Perot modulator/detector (AFPM) functions as a single optical/electrical transducer performing optical intensity modulation and photodetection simultaneously at the base station. Full-duplex operation is demonstrated for both access types in an indoor laboratory environment as well as in a small-scale outdoor field trial
