100G PAM-4 PON with 34 dB power budget using joint nonlinear Tomlinson-Harashima precoding and Volterra equalization

We experimentally demonstrate 100G PAM-4 passive optical network using DML-based intensity modulation and direct detection with 3-dB system bandwidth of 15 GHz in O-band. Combining nonlinear Tomlinson-Harashima precoding at the transmitter and 2nd-order Volterra at the receiver enables 34-dB power b...

Description
Summary:We experimentally demonstrate 100G PAM-4 passive optical network using DML-based intensity modulation and direct detection with 3-dB system bandwidth of 15 GHz in O-band. Combining nonlinear Tomlinson-Harashima precoding at the transmitter and 2nd-order Volterra at the receiver enables 34-dB power budget for PON downstream.
