  1. DSP Based Equalization for 40-Gbps Fiber Optic Communication Shahriar Shahramian

  2. Problem & Motivation • At high bit rates (> 10 Gbps) fiber optic channel’s impairments become prominent. • Differential Mode Dispersion (in Multi Mode Fiber) & Polarization Mode Dispersion (in Single Mode Fiber) degrade signal quality over long haul fiber channels. • Equalization techniques are required to achieve high bit rate over fiber optic channels.

  3. Problem & Motivation II • Some analog equalization techniques have been shown for 40-Gbps communication. • Another possibility for equalization is digital equalization. • The main challenge of high speed digital equalization is the design of the ADC at such high bit rates. • Provided that high speed ADCs can be built, digital equalization is more accurate and offers more flexibility.

  8. THA Measurement Results • Both data and clock input have been applied single ended. • In Differential mode, the “in phase” clock feed-through signal is eliminated. OP Diff. Output OP ON Diff. Output

  9. THA Measurements II • Two tone signals at the input (separated by 100 MHz) have been used to measure the IM3 output power and the input compression point. • An abstract has been submitted to CSICS 2005 based on this circuit as (to our best knowledge) the world’s fastest THA.
