Abstract

In this paper, an inter-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) sub-carrier distortion due to fiber chromatic dispersion is investigated. The fiber chromatic dispersion induces phase difference among OFDM sub-carriers, resulting in non-symmetric peak to average power ratio (PAPR) inducing inter-OFDM distortion. Experiments to confirm the fiber dispersion are performed in a direct-detection optical front-haul link. Quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) encoded OFDM symbols at 25 Gbit/s are transmitted over 100 km fiber and the resulting error vector magnitude (EVM) of 40 % is observed.

본 논문에서는 광섬유 분산에 의한 직교 주파수 분할 다중방식(OFDM: orthogonal frequency division multiplexing)의 부 반송파 신호왜곡에 대해 조사하였다. 광섬유 색 분산은 OFDM 신호 간의 위상차를 발생시키고, 이는 OFDM 신호 왜곡을 유기하는 비대칭 첨두전력대 평균전력 비율을 유기한다. 광섬유 분산의 영향을 확인하기 위한 실험은 직접검출 광 모바일 프론트홀 시스템에서 수행하였다. 4 Gbit/s의 QPSK-OFDM 심볼의 경우, 100 km 전송에서 EVM이 40 %에 도달함을 확인하였다.
