Multi-level optimization of a fiber transmission system via nonlinearity management
2006
Nonlinearity management is explored as a complete tool to obtain maximum transmission reach in a WDM fiber transmission system, making it possible to optimize multiple system parameters, including optimal dispersion pre-compensation, with fast simulations based on the continuous-wave approximation. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
Dispersion induced effects of high-order optical sidebands in the performance of millimeter-wave fiber-optic links
2006
In this paper, chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) are proposed as signal-phase controllers for microwave-photonic wireless downstream fiber links. The effect of high-order modulation optical sidebands that disturbs the output mm-wave signal due to the chromatic dispersion induced by the gratings is studied theoretically and experimentally. The 1st and 2nd mm-wave harmonics of the output signal have been measured for conventional intensity modulation and for intensity modulation with optical carrier suppression. In the last case, data transmission at 2.5 Gb/s is demonstrated through a chirped grating of 280 ps/nm dispersion in a 40-GHz modulated link.
Suppression of pulse pedestal using nonlinear optical loop mirrors in grating-compensated dispersion-managed fiber transmission systems
2006
Pulse pedestal suppression by nonlinear optical loop mirrors is utilized to reduce the intersymbol interference caused by the group delay ripples of a real grating profile in dispersion-managed communication systems compensated by chirped fiber gratings.

Accurate and broadband characterization of few-mode optical fibers using acousto-optic coupling
2015
Acousto-optic interaction in optical fibers is exploited for the accurate and broadband characterization of two-mode fibers. Differential modal index, group delay, and group-velocity dispersion is obtained. The technique is suitable for the characterization of few-mode fibers used in space-division multiplexing.

All-Optical Polarization Control for Telecom Applications
2015
We describe a phenomenon of self-organization of the light state-of-polarization in optical fibers based on a nonlinear cross-polarization interaction between an incident signal and its backward replica. Several proof-of-principles for telecom applications are reported.
