  • Abstract
    The application of polarisation-division-multiplexing in presented, demonstrating full-duplex transmission in an access network architecture employing RSOA-based ONUs. Modelling of a single coarse-AWG OLT to transmit orthogonally-multiplexed burst-data and continuous-waves demonstrated crosstalk-free transmission up to 20 km.
