The use of two integrated-optical modulators operated in parallel to attain low-distortion
analog optical transmission is examined. This static feedforward approach achieves …

The design and performance of multichannel amplitude-modulated (AM) vestigial-sideband
(VSB) lightwave cable television (CATV) systems are described. Requirements on linearity …

We demonstrate the implementation of feedforward linearization at 5 GHz, which is the
highest operating frequency yet reported, with 500-MHz linearization bandwidth having at …

The progress towards developing AM lightwave links for the transmission of multiple TV
signals is reported. While the signal-quality objectives and transmission distances are …

A modulating signal is predistorted to linearize the output of an optical intensity modulator.
The modulating signal is split into first and second paths. In the first path, the signal is phase …

This paper contrasts the system requirements in the three major applications of fiber optics:
digital telecommunications, analog, and local data communications. These comparisons …

An optical feedforward compensation circuit for linearisation of analogue modulated
semiconductor lasers is described. A reduction in the second harmonic distortion of greater …

An electroabsorption modulated laser (EML) is linearized by emulation and reversal of the
nonlinear distortion using a companion EML inside an optoelectronic interferometer …

Current CATV broadband networks are described, and a simplified model of these AM
systems is given. AM systems performance metrics are examined from a CATV perspective …
