A derivative and subtractive equalization (DSE), which simultaneously transmits both four-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) and discrete multitone (DMT) signals encoded by quadrature amplitude phase shift keying (QPSK) with the same bandwidth, is proposed. The proposed DSE recovers the DMT signal by tracking the change of derivative value between adjacent sampling points and then subtracting the recovered PAM-4 signal after derivative value tracking from the received signals. A 20-km optical link is implemented to experimentally verify the proposed DSE technique. The bit error rate (BER) of the PAM-4 signal (1 Gbaud) and the error vector magnitude (EVM) of QPSK signal (1 Gbaud) are measured in order to examine the difference in transmission performance before and after using the proposed DSE technique. The 20% EVM of QPSK signal and the 5.4 × 10 − 5 BER of PAM-4 signal is observed at the 25% power ratio of DMT signal to PAM-4 signal. It is found that the signal-to-noise ratio of input PAM-4 and DMT signal should be 25 and 40 dB, respectively, with the 7% forward error correction to successfully transmit them at the same time. The 4-dB power penalty is observed before and after using DSE technique. These experimental results tell us that the transmission capacity of 4 times the bandwidth can be achieved using the proposed DSE technique.

A nonorthogonal amplitude, phase, and frequency modulation (APFM) technique that can increase the transmission capacity of an optical wireless link based on white light-emitting diode (LED) is proposed. It is implemented by the simultaneous use of nonorthogonal frequency shift keying (FSK) and quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). A white LED-based wireless link using a 64-APFM scheme is constructed to experimentally verify the proposed technique, where the 64-APFM scheme is implemented by the combination of nonorthogonal 4-FSK and 16-QAM. Two more bits per symbol are transmitted using the proposed scheme with the same bandwidth of QAM. No intercarrier interference effect is observed at the 0.02-% frequency spacing (0.001 MHz) for the used RF carrier (5 MHz) because the correlation between the received 64-APFM signal and only one carrier at a time is accomplished with the help of digital signal processing. 6-Mbit/s (1-Msymbol/s) data are successfully transmitted through an optical wireless channel with a limited bandwidth of 1 MHz. This indicates that six bits per symbol can be transmitted using the proposed APFM technique at the same physical bandwidth as 16-QAM.
We propose a technique that improves the channel capacity of an optical wireless orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission, which employs a visible light-emitting diode. An OFDM waveform encoded by quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) or 16-quadrature amplitude modulation is compressed and then transformed into a sparse waveform using a proposed advanced systematic sampling. At the optical wireless receiver, the original waveform is recovered by L1-minimization based on a Bayesian compressive sensing. Our experimental results show the significant increase in the channel capacity from 31.12 to 51.87 Mbit/s at forward error correction limit (i.e., error vector magnitude of 32%) in case of QPSK symbols.

A Novel technique for reducing the OBI noise in optical OFDMA-PON uplink is presented. OFDMA is a multipleaccess/ multiplexing scheme that can provide multiplexing operation of user data streams onto the downlink sub-channels and uplink multiple access by means of dividing OFDM subcarriers as sub-channels. The main issue of high-speed, single-wavelength upstream OFDMA-PON arises from optical beating interference noise. Because the sub-channels are allocated dynamically to multiple access users over same nominal wavelength, it generates the optical beating interference among upstream signals.
In this paper, we proposed a novel scheme using self-homodyne balanced detection in the optical line terminal (OLT) to reduce OBI noise which is generated in the uplink transmission of OFDMA-PON system. When multiple OFDMA sub-channels over the same nominal wavelength are received at the same time in the proposed architecture, OBI noises can be removed using balanced detection. Using discrete multitone modulation (DMT) to generate real valued OFDM signals, the proposed technique is verified through experimental demonstration.
A new wavelength division multiplexed-radio over fiber (WDM-RoF) access network scheme supporting the
simultaneous transmission of a 1.25-Gb/s wired data as well as a 1.25-Gb/s wireless data is proposed in this paper. An
optical carrier suppression effect and sideband routing using the multiplexing of arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) with
50-GHz channel spacing are utilized to generate a millimeter wave band carrier. These techniques make the proposed
architecture transmit both a wired data and a wireless one at the same time. A reflective semiconductor optical amplifier
(RSOA) is employed at both central office and base station so that this architecture is operated colorlessly. Error free
transmissions (BER of 10-9) of both downlink and uplink are achieved simultaneously.
Visible light emitting diode (LED) wireless system based on the existing optical access network is proposed for the first
time. Electroabsorption transceiver (EAT) is used to construct LED wireless optical link with optical access network.
5Mbps downlink and uplink transmission is verified through 23Km standard single mode fiber (SSMF) and 40cm
wireless channel experimentally.
A new bidirectional wavelength division multiplexing - radio over fiber scheme is proposed with multi optical carrier
suppression for simultaneous wired and wireless 1.25-Gbps signal transmission. For downstream signals, all modes of a
Fabry Perot laser diode are simultaneously suppressed by a Mach-Zehnder modulator at Vπ bias point to mitigate a
chromatic dispersion. A reflective SOA is used both for reduction of mode partition noise induced from the Fabry Perot
laser diode and for the downstream modulation of each channel. The effect of MPN reduction is verified by measuring
RF spectra and phase noises. For an upstream signal, another reflective SOA in BS is used by re-modulation technique,
which is verified by measuring both the RF spectra and a dynamic rage of an optical input power to the RSOA. A BER
of 10-11 for three downlink channels and one uplink channel at 1.25-Gbps are experimentally demonstrated after 23-km
SMF transmission.

A new architecture for bidirectional millimeter-wave band radio-over-fiber system is proposed; both optical carrier
suppression and injection locking effect are used to simultaneously generate a 1.25-Gb/s wired signal and a 63-GHz
wireless one. Error free transmissions (bit error rate of 10-11) of downlink and uplink data are achieved to verify the
proposed scheme. No impact of a downlink data transmission on an uplink one due to the wavelength reuse is observed.
It is checked that there is only the 2-dB power penalty of uplink due to the Rayleigh backscattering noise.
We proposed a new bidirectional gigabit wavelength division multiplexed/radio on fiber (WDM-RoF) system which
shares the same wavelength. A central station for downlink transmits a 3GHz wireless signal which is modulated
1.25Gbps by use of a mach-zehnder modulator. A base station for uplink a transmits 1.25Gbps down-converted wireless
signal by using a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier. We achieved a BER<10-9 of the downlink at -18.3dBm and
of the uplink at -22dBm after 20km transmission.
We proposed a novel linearization technique for DFB LD in Radio-over-Fiber. The proposed scheme is using light
injection based on cross-gain modulation (XGM) effect. We experimentally demonstrated and evaluated the enhanced
CNR performance using the proposed scheme.
