Abstract

Bidirectional high definition television (HDTV)/Gigabit Ethernet over wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM)-passive optical network (PON) based on injection-locked Fabry-Perot laser diodes (FP LDs) as transmitters were proposed and demonstrated. Injection-locked FP LDs, a particularly inexpensive option, are used to replace conventional distributed feedback (DFB) LDs. Services with 77 HDTV channels and 1 Gigabit Ethernet channel connection were successfully demonstrated over 40 km single-mode fiber (SMF) transport. Good performance of bit error rate (BER) and clear eye diagram were achieved in our proposed bidirectional WDM-PON.
