Performance Comparison between DPSK and OQPSK modulation approaches in multi environments channels with Matlab Simulink models

Radio over fiber is becoming an increasingly important technology for the wireless market since it introduces a higher data transmission rate and large bandwidth. In this paper, we have compared OQPSK and DPSK bidirectional radio over fiber ROF systems, where an offset quadrature phase shift keying (OQPSK) or differential phase shift keying (DPSK) signals are used for down-link and an on-off keying (OOK) signal re-modulated for up-link. Several measurements were performed including Bit Error Rate (BER) curves for uplink and downlink, RSOA gain curve and noise figure with the variation of input power and temperature for each system.

In this paper, the authors derive the moment generating function (MGF) of the decision variable for a practical optical differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) receiver affected by phase noise and the amplifier spontaneous emission noise. The effect of the different optical filters, Gaussian, Fabry-Peacuterot (FP), and optical integrator, on the phase noise is examined. Using the saddle point approximation, the authors obtain numerically the bit error rate (BER) for the above system, as a function of the optical-signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) and the source linewidth. The model is found to agree with previous published simulation results and the Monte Carlo simulations presented in this paper. The authors also calculate the BER floors for DQPSK inflicted by the phase noise and compare its performance with differential phase shift keying (DPSK). Finally, the authors examine the effect of interferometric demodulation on the relative intensity noise (RIN) spectra and the impact on the DQPSK system performance. In particular, the authors examine the influence of system dispersion on the receiver sensitivity

This paper presents recent progress toward the realization of ultrahigh-speed coherent optical transmission with a single-channel bit rate of more than 1 Tbit/s using ultrashort pulse technology and an advanced modulation format. We first describe Tbit/s optical time-division multiplexing (OTDM) transmission employing differential binary or quadrature phase shift keying. We present our recent demonstrations of single-polarization 640-Gb/s differential phase-shift keying and 1.28-Tb/s differential quadrature phase-shift keying transmissions over 525 km, which employ an ultrafast optical Fourier transformation technique. We then focus on coherent optical transmission using quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) with a multiplicity of 512 that enables us to achieve an ultrahigh spectral efficiency of more than 10 b/s/Hz. Finally, we demonstrate a novel ultrahigh-speed, spectrally efficient coherent pulse transmission combining OTDM and QAM. A 400 Gb/s, 32 RZ/QAM signal was successfully transmitted over 225 km on a single carrier at 10 Gsymbol/s × 4-OTDM.

The Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of a dispersion managed optical transmission link using Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) modulation format in the presence of timing misalignment induced by Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) has been investigated. The present work focuses on analytical evaluation of the timing jitter variance of the recovered signal, which is impaired by random pulse perturbation induced by PMD. The system performance penalty is obtained as a function of system parameters and the signal jitter characteristics. Our investigation shows that the random signal perturbations can seriously degrade bit-error-rate performance of the received DPSK signal. Our analysis also shows that DPSK modulation using RZ data is more robust to timing misalignment compared to NRZ-DPSK signal.

Performance Analysis of Different Phase Shift Keying Modulation Schemes in Aeronautical Channels

<p>The transmission of high power inside the optical fiber, produce amplitude noise, phase noise and other transmission impairments that degrade the performance of optical communication system. The signal regeneration techniques are used to mitigate these nonlinear impairments in the electrical or in the optical domain. All-optical signal regeneration techniques are one of the solutions to mitigate these nonlinear transmission impairments in the optical domain without converting the signal from optical to electrical domain. The existing techniques are not capable enough to attain the Bit Error Rate (BER) less than 10<sup>-10</sup> with the power penalty less than – 9dBm. In this paper, a new all-optical signal regeneration technique is developed that mitigate amplitude and phase noises in the optical domain. The new optical signal regeneration technique is developed by combining the two existing technique one is 3R (Reshaping, Reamplification and Retiming) regeneration and other is Phase Sensitive Amplification (PSA). The 10Gb/s Differential Phase shift Keying (DPSK) noisy transmission system is used to verify the features of developed technique. The developed technique successfully mitigates the nonlinear impairments from the noisy DPSK system with significant improvement in BER at low power penalty with the additional feature of high Q-factor and an eye open response for the regenerated signal. It is determined that BER of 10<sup>-12</sup> is achieved at the power penalty of -14 dBm with Q-factor of 42 and an eye opened response. The developed technique in the DPSK system is realized using commercial software package Optisystem. The designed technique will be helpful to enhance the performance existing high-speed optical communication by achieving the minimum BER at low power penalty.</p>

A multi-tone code division multiple access (MT-CDMA) system with post-detection diversity combining is analyzed. The analysis is presented in terms of average bit error rate (BER). The modulator uses differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) signaling over a slowly Rician fading and frequency selective channel in the indoor environment. Here, the influence of the order of diversity and number of tones is studied for given bandwidth (BW), bit rate and transmitter power. The paper also compares the BER performance between differential binary phase shift keying (DBPSK) and DQPSK based MT-CDMA systems.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate generation of optical carrier suppressed-optical differential phase-shift keying (OCS-oDPSK) modulation format in radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems using one single-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM). This scheme realizes up-conversion of baseband data for downlink wireless service delivery, generation of remote local oscillator (LO) signal for down-conversion of uplink radio frequency (RF) signal, and remodulation of down-converted uplink data, thus lowering the cost of base stations (BSs) in full-duplex RoF systems. The proposed scheme is expected to be simple and compact due to the use of a single MZM. Furthermore, the OCS-oDPSK generation principle is extended to obtain an OCS-optical differential quadrature phase-shift keying (OCS-oDQPSK) signal by employing a dual-parallel MZM (DPMZM), which is useful to deliver multiple wireless services on the same RF carrier.

Wireless data transmission with binary phase-shift keying modulation encoded on a 92 GHz carrier is achieved using photonic components. A high-speed photodiode is used to convert the doubly-modulated optical signal to a modulated millimeter-wave carrier. A W-band Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a one-bit time delay is used to directly detect the differential phase-shift keyed millimeter-wave wireless signal without the use of a local oscillator. Field tests with antennas separated by 890 m demonstrate the ability to discriminate two phase states for differential binary phase shift keying (DBPSK) and four phase states for differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) at data rates of 2.3 Gb/s and 4.6 Gb/s, respectively.

In recent years, there has been enormous interest in millimeter (mm) wave communication systems such as IEEE 802.11ad and IEEE 802.15.3c operating in higher and unused frequency bands. To make system more resilient in time varying, multipath fading channels, a modulation scheme called π/2-quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) along with a forward error control (FEC) scheme has been proposed in these systems. The performance of the FEC decoder is improved when soft information in the form of log likelihood ratio (LLR) is given to it In this paper, we propose a method for soft demapping of π/2-QPSK symbols. This method is also applicable to other schemes such as differential QPSK (DQPSK) and offset QPSK (OPSK). The complexity of the proposed method is very less and requires one adder and one multiplier. We demonstrate the bit error rate (BER) performance of the proposed method using simulations and compare it with that of other methods.

The authors propose an algorithm for an equalizer/demodulator to minimize the effects of the propagation channel on pi /4 offset differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) modulated symbols transmitted over a flat fading channel. The proposed equalizer/demodulator takes as input the in-phase and quadrature samples of the received signal and outputs the corresponding decoded bits. The equalizer uses a Hilbert transform to estimate the absolute value of the phase differential of the carrier from the envelope of the carrier. This is demonstrated on a mobile radio channel. >

Differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) has been widely implemented and developed in high-speed optical communication systems. The low error rate detection at high access rate is one of the considerable issues in practical engineering application. Balanced detection based on fiber Mach-Zehnder delay interferometer (MZDI) is the typical optical DPSK signal detecting method. It requires that the free spectrum range (FSR) of the MZDI equals the reciprocal of symbol period of the DPSK signal. For the reasons of ambient temperature variation and nonlinear phase noise, a dynamic frequency offset always exists between the FSR and the reciprocal of symbol period. That may introduce some optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) costs and fault detections. Therefore, it is significant to inhibit the frequency offset on DPSK detection. In this paper, firstly, we discuss the effects of frequency offset on DPSK detection, and realize the conclusion that frequency offset is virtually equivalent to an additional phase difference between adjacent symbols. Secondly, through simulation, we analyze the feasibility of DPSK detection in the presence of a definite range of frequency offset, and present the quantitative computation of effective coverage, duty cycle, and optimal sampling time of symbol interference. Some issues which should be considered in practical implementation are also discussed. Finally, according to the relationship among phase difference, temperature and voltage, we propose a phase difference compensation scheme which can automatically adjust the voltage for optimal detections, and dynamically track the changing of ambient temperature and nonlinear phase noise. Furthermore, we ascertain the performance of the voltage requested for implementing the scheme. The scheme can be also developed to quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) and differential QPSK (DQPSK) modulation situations.

For over 40-Gbps optical communication systems, phase coded modulation formats, like differential phase shift keying (DPSK) and quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), are very important for signal frequency efficiency and long-reach transmission. In such systems, differential receivers which regenerate phase signals are key components. Dual Photo Diodes (dual PDs) are key semiconductor devices which determine the receiver performance. Each PD of the dual PDs should realize high speed performance, high responsibility and high input power operation capability. Highly symmetrical characteristics between the two PDs should be also realized, thus the dual PDs are desired to be monolithically integrated to one chip. In this paper, we describe the design, fabrication, characteristics and reliability of monolithically integrated dual evanescently coupled waveguide photodiodes (EC-WG-PDs) for the purpose described above. The structure of the EC-WG-PDs offers the attractive advantages of high speed performance, high responsivity and high input power operation. Furthermore, their fabrication process is suitable for the integration of two PDs on one ship. First, the optimization was done for high products of 3-dB bandwidth and responsivity for 43-Gbps DPSK receivers. Excellent characteristics (50GHz bandwidth with a responsivity of 0.95A/W), and high reliability were demonstrated. The other type of optimization was done for ultra high speed operation up to 100-Gbps. The fabricated PDs exhibited the 3dB-bandwidth of 80GHz with a responsivity of 0.25A/W. Furthermore, 43-Gbps RZ-DPSK receivers including the dual EC-WG-PDs based on the former optimization and differential transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) newly developed for the purpose were also presented. Clear and symmetrical eye openings were observed for both ports. The OSNR characteristics exhibited 14.3dB at a bit error rate of 10-3 that is able to be recovery with FEC. These performances are enough for practical use in 43-Gbps RZ-DPSK systems.

Higher spectral efficiency and greater data rate per channel are the most cost-effective strategies to meet the exponential demand of data traffic in the optical core network. Multilevel modulation formats being spectrally efficient enhance the transmission capacity by coding information in the amplitude, phase, polarization or a combination of all. This paper presents the design architecture of a 32-channel dense wavelength division multiplexed (DWDM) system, where each channel operates with multi-level phase modulation formats at 40 Gbps. The proposed design has been simulated for 50 GHz channel spacing to numerically compute the performance of both differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) and differential quadrature phase-shift keying (DQPSK) modulation formats in such high-speed DWDM system. The transmission link is analyzed with perfect dispersion compensation and also with under-compensation scheme. The link performance in terms of quality factor (

Multi-carrier direct sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) with differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulation is proposed. Transmitted data bits are differentially encoded before being serial to parallel converted to a number of parallel streams. On each stream each encoded bit is direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) modulated and transmitted using orthogonal carriers. The system is analyzed with a differential detector for a static Rayleigh fading multipath channel. The performance is compared to that of the (PSK) conventional matched filter (CMF) receiver. It is shown that, for the static fading channel, the performance of the differential detector is akin to a (CMF) receiver especially for a small number of identical-bit carriers and small signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). (DPSK) with a differential detector has the advantage of simpler implementation than (PSK) with (CMF) since the exact frequency and phase of the carrier are not required in the differential detector.
