Abstract

The transmission performance of 10Gb/s optical duobinary transmitters implemented by using a Mach-Zehnder(MZ) modulator and an optical delay interferometer is presented. We investigated the theoretical impact of transmission systems by the modulator driving voltage ratio(=driving voltage/switching voltage) and the optical interferometer time delay to improve transmission distance using computer simulation. By reducing the driving voltage ratio and optimizing the partial bit time delay, the transmission performance has been improved greatly.

마크-젠더 변조기와 광 간섭계를 이용한 10Gb/s 광 듀오바이너리 송신기의 전송 성능을 고찰하였다. 전송 거리를 증가시키기 위해서 전송 시스템이 받는 영향을 변조기의 구동 전압비와 광 간섭계의 시간 지연 관점에서 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 이론적 분석을 하였다. 구동 전압비를 줄이고 부분 비트 시간 지연을 최적화하여 보다 향상된 전송 성능을 확인하였다.
