Abstract:
We experimentally demonstrate the feasibility of 100 Gbit/s PAM-4 PON with an extended optical power budget of 41.2 dB. We also study stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) suppression relevant to high launch power conditions and multipath interference (MPI) to which PAM-4 signals are sensitive.
