dc.description.abstract | <p> Analytical expressions for the propagation impairments due to various noise sources in long-haul optical systems and fiber-to-the-home passive optical networks have been obtained. Extensive comparison has been made in this thesis for systems based on different modulation formats, and the advantage of one over the other is clearly stated.</p> <p> For long-haul fiber optical communication systems with inline amplifiers, we have studied the statistical properties of various noise sources in systems based on differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) such as the linear phase noise induced by the amplifier spontaneous emission (ASE) noise, the intra-channel four-wave mixing (IFWM) and the nonlinear phase noise induced by the interplay between ASE noise and fiber Kerr nonlinearity. The error probability of the system based on DPSK is evaluated semi-analytically. In addition, the error probability of the system based on on-off keying (OOK) is calculated taking into account the effects of ASE noise, and the intra-channel nonlinearities such as IFWM and intra-channel cross-phase modulation (IXPM). Comparison of the performance of systems based on DPSK and OOK is made thereafter.</p> <p> For fiber-to-the-home passive optical networks without inline active photonic devices, different modulation formats have been examined for the downstream and upstream data to enable full-duplex transmission. The statistical properties of Rayleigh backscattering in single-source bi-directional optical systems have been studied including the effects of the high speed external modulation signal and the laser phase noise for systems based on DPSK and OOK. The error probabilities for systems using OOK/OOK topology and DPSK/OOK topology for downstream/upstream transmission have been evaluated and compared.</p> <p> In addition, the interplay of the amplifier spontaneous emission noise, fiber nonlinearity and dispersion has been examined starting from the nonlinear Schrödinger equation on the receiver current fluctuation. The variance of the current noise has been evaluated analytically using the two dimensional perturbation theory.</p> | en_US |
