Linear Burst-Mode Receivers for DSP-Enabled Passive Optical Networks
Abstract
High-dynamic-range and fast-response burst-mode receivers have become a prerequisite for time-division multiplexed passive optical networks (TDM-PON). Recent progress in high-rate burst-mode receiving technologies optimized for linear operation enables upstream equalization or DSP for future PONs.
