Abstract:A linear phase-modulated photonic link with the dispersion-induced power fading effect suppressed based on optical carrier band (OCB) processing is proposed. By introducing a proper phase shift to the OCB, the third-order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) component of the signal transmitted over a length of fiber is effectively suppressed, while the fundamental component is shifted to be away from the notch point of the transmission response. The IMD3 and the dispersion-induced power fading effect are effectively suppressed simultaneously to realize a linear phase-modulated photonic link, and the simplicity is preserved. Theoretical analyses are taken and an experiment is carried out. Simultaneous suppression of IMD3 and dispersion-induced power fading effect is achieved. An improvement of larger than 10 dB in third-order spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR3) for both the RF frequency around the notch point and the peak point of the transmission response curve for a 20-km link is realized, as compared with the traditional phase-modulated photonic link without the OCB processing.
