Abstract:We demonstrate a dual optical frequency comb concept that down-converts arbitrary narrowband D-band (110-170 GHz) signals to baseband without any filter or optical/RF frequency tuning, using low frequency RF components.




Abstract:We studied the power consumption of hybrid-amplified SCL-band links using commercial benchtop amplifiers and Raman pumps. We show a reduction in energy per bit for multi-span hybrid Raman amplified links of up to 26% versus lumped amplification.
