Abstract :
We demonstrate an all-VCSEL based 100-Gb/s polarization-division-multiplexed 4-level pulse-amplitude-modulation coherent system using two directly modulated 1.55-μm single-mode VCSELs at the transmitter and a third VCSEL as the local oscillator. We transmit the 100-Gb/s signal over 320-km standard-single-mode-fiber.
