| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Color-less optical network units that operate at an arbitrary wavelength are anticipated in WDM-PON systems. Downstream re-modulation schemes using gain saturation of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) have been demonstrated so far, though available bit rates are limited below several gigabits per second due to slow carrier life time of SOAs. The researcher studied an SOA-based downstream re-modulation scheme available for beyond-10 gigabits per second systems assisted by a Fabry-Perot ethalon that cuts off high frequency components of modulation sidebands. Experiments of bi-directional transmission were successfully demonstrated. The researcher also proposed a scheme of automatic tuning of the ethalon, and experimentally demonstrated its basic operation.
