Apparatus and Methods for Mitigating Multipath Interference in Fiber Transmission System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18153217 titled 'Apparatus and Methods for Mitigating Multipath Interference in Fiber Transmission System
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an optical receiver that can handle intensity modulated optical signals with multipath interference (MPI). It includes a detector to convert the optical signal to an electrical signal, a high pass filter (HPF) to suppress noise induced by MPI, and an output port to transmit the filtered electrical signal.
- The optical receiver is designed to handle intensity modulated optical signals with multipath interference.
- It includes a detector to convert the optical signal to an electrical signal.
- A high pass filter (HPF) is used to filter the electrical signal and suppress noise caused by carrier-carrier beat induced by MPI.
- The filtered electrical signal is then transmitted through an output port.
Potential Applications
- Optical communication systems
- Fiber optic networks
- Wireless communication systems
Problems Solved
- Multipath interference (MPI) in intensity modulated optical signals
- Carrier-carrier beat noise induced by MPI
Benefits
- Improved signal quality in the presence of MPI
- Suppression of carrier-carrier beat noise
- Enhanced performance of optical receivers
Original Abstract Submitted
An optical receiver that includes an input port configured to receive intensity modulated optical signal with multipath interference (MPI); a detector configured to convert the intensity modulated optical signal with multipath interference to an electrical signal; a high pass filter (HPF) configured to filter the electrical signal and suppress carrier-carrier beat noise induced by the MPI to produce a filtered electrical signal; and an output port configured to transmit the filtered electrical signal.
