20110020003Generating A 400-Gbit/s Single-Channel Optical Signal - A method for generating a 400 Gb/s single channel optical signal from multiple modulated subchannels includes carving respective modulated subchannels into return-to-zero RZ modulated subchannels having non-overlapping peaks with intensity modulators having a duty cycle less than 50%, and combining the subchannels into a single channel signal aggregating the bit rate of each of the subchannels. The subchannels are combined with a flat top optical component for increased subsequent receiver sensitivity.01-27-2011

20100086303HIGH SPEED POLMUX-OFDM USING DUAL-POLMUX CARRIERS AND DIRECT DETECTION - A polarization multiplexing, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (POMUX) transmission system utilizing direct detection.04-08-2010
20100142952ADAPTIVE CROSSING FREQUENCY DOMAIN EQUALIZATION (FDE) IN DIGITAL POLMUX COHERENT SYSTEMS - A method for the polarization independent frequency domain equalization (FDE) on polarization multiplexing (POLMUX) coherent systems employing an adaptive crossing FDE which advantageously produces CD compensation, PMD compensation and PolDeMux within one functional block of a digital signal processor (DSP).06-10-2010
20100196009POLARIZATION INDEPENDENT FREQUENCY DOMAIN EQUALIZATION (FDE) FOR CHROMATIC DISPERSION (CD) COMPENSATION IN POLMUX COHERENT SYSTEMS - A method for the polarization independent frequency domain equalization (FDE) chromatic dispersion compensation on polarization multiplexing (POLMUX) coherent systems. Operationally, time domain signals are converted to frequency domain signals such that time domain convolution can be done as simple multiplications in the frequency domain. These frequency domain signals then converted back to time domain for subsequent use. The input signal size and FFT size are advantageously designed so that the output signals can be continuous with some overlap between two successive frames.08-05-2010
20100266282Parallel Digital Coherent Detection Using Symmetrical Optical Interleaver and Direct Optical Down Conversion - A method includes modulating lightwaves to provide first and second OFDM signal sidebands at a first polarization direction and first and second OFDM signal sidebands at a second polarization direction, and combining sidebands that are oppositely positioned and joined from the first and second OFDM signal sidebands at each polarization direction to provide a polarization multiplexing OFDM signal.10-21-2010
20110255864CARRIER FREQUENCY OFFSET (CFO) ESTIMATOR WITH LOW COMPLEXITY AND HIGH ACCURACY FOR ORTHOGONAL-FREQUENCY-DIVISION-MULTIPLEXING (CO-OFDM) SYSTEMS - A system and method are provided for carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation for coherent optical orthogonal-frequency-division-multiplexing (CO-OFDM) broadband systems. The method includes obtaining an initial estimate of a normalized CFO with an estimation range equal to ±L/2 subcarrier subspacing using a single training symbol with L identical portions. The method further includes obtaining a maximum likelihood (ML) estimate of the CFO by performing a local grid search based on the initial estimate.10-20-2011
