First system experiments with a monolithically integrated tunable polarization diversity heterodyne receiver OEIC on InP
Abstract
System performance of an integrated polarization diversity heterodyne receiver optoelectronic IC (OEIC) is reported. The OEIC is monolithically integrated on InP. It includes a tunable 4 section DBR laser (quasi continuous tuning range 3.5 nm) and balanced photodiodes. The packaged OEIC is supplied with a fiber pigtail. Stable and polarization independent operation is achieved without any tendency for a bit error floor. The sensitivity at 1550.2 nm is -33.5 dBm at a bitrate of 140 Mbit/s. The performance of the OEIC based receiver is verified by operating in an experimental OFDM-TV distribution system with 4 channels.
