Abstract
Record 1.92-Tb/s (40λ × 48Gb/s/λ) coherent DWDM-OFDMA-PON without high-speed ONU-side ADCs/DACs/DSP/RF clock sources is demonstrated over 100km straight SSMF with a 1:64 passive split. Novel optical-domain OFDMA sub-band selection, coherent detection, and simple RF components are exploited. As the first experimental verification of a next-generation optical platform capable of delivering 1Gb/s to 1000+ users over 100km, the new architecture is promising for future optical access/metro systems.
