Abstract :
In this letter, we demonstrate a proof of concept fully loaded bidirectional ultrahigh capacity coherent passive optical network (2 × 1008 × 8.3 Gb/s). This was achieved using partial spectrum overlap, Nyquist shaping, digital frequency shifting, self-homodyne detection, and pilot tone remodulation. Upstream burst mode operation is also demonstrated.
