Abstract :
Chromatic dispersion compensation of non-return-to-zero on-off keying (NRZ-OOK) signals with a diverse-vestigial-sideband-filtering feed forward equaliser and a decision feedback equaliser (DVSB-FFE-DFE) is presented, in which diverse vestigial sideband (VSB) filtering is realised with a Mach-Zehnder (MZ) filter. In a 10.709 Gbit/s NRZ-OOK system, experiment results show that the standard singlemode fibre transmission distance at 3 dB optical signal-to-noise ratio penalty with DVSB-FFE-DFE is doubled, compared to that with conventional FFE-DFE.
