Original Abstract

We generate a 640 Gbaud phase-correlated OTDM (PC-OTDM) return-to-zero on-off keying (RZ-OOK) signal based on cross phase modulation induced cross polarization rotation in a AL-HNLF and a 640 Gbaud PC-OTDM non-return-to-zero (NRZ-OOK) signal by RZ-to-NRZ conversion using passive filtering. This is employed in a 1.19-Tbit/s PDM-NRZ-OOK field transmission with BER< 3.8x10-3 for all 128 tributaries. As a benefit of phase coherence between adjacent TDM channels, a PC-OTDM signal can be very tolerant to strict filtering and the bandwidth of the 640 Gbaud PC-OTDM NRZ-OOK signal can be restricted to 700 GHz. In addition, with a narrower spectrum a PC-OTDM NRZ-OOK signal is more tolerant to chromatic dispersion (CD) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) compared to a conventional (i.e. phase uncorrelated) OTDM RZ signal.
