     概要を見る

    Millimeter wave fixed wireless systems in future backhaul and access network applications can be affected by weather conditions. The losses caused by rain attenuation and antenna misalignment due to wind-induced vibrations have greater impacts on the link budget reduction at E-band frequencies and higher. The current International Telecommunications Union Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) recommendation has been widely used to estimate rain attenuation, and the recent Asia Pacific Telecommunity (APT) report provides the model to estimate the wind-induced attenuation. This article provides the first experimental study of the combined rain and wind effects in a tropical location using both models at a frequency in the E band (74.625 GHz) and a short distance of 150 m. In addition to using wind speeds for attenuation estimation, the setup also provides direct antenna inclination angle measurements using the accelerometer data. This solves the limitation of relying on the wind speed since the wind-induced loss is dependent on the inclination direction. The results show that the current ITU-R model can be used to estimate the attenuation of a short fixed wireless link under heavy rain, and the addition of wind attenuation via the APT model can estimate the worst-case link budget during high wind speeds.

    Optics Letters   47 ( 5 ) 1149 - 1152  2022年  [国際誌]

     概要を見る

    This Letter describes a high-speed yet simple fiber-wireless-fiber system in the 100-GHz band using a photonics-enabled receiver and optical phase modulator. At the antenna site, a millimeter-wave signal is down-converted to the microwave band using an electronic mixer with a local oscillator signal generated remotely using photonic technology. The down-converted signal is converted to an optical signal using an optical phase modulator. At the receiver, a simple direct detection of the phase-modulated signal is performed using optical filtering technology. To demonstrate the proof-of-concept, we successfully transmitted a 64-quadrature amplitude modulation orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing signal with a record line rate of 80 Gb/s (net data rate of 55 Gb/s) over a system consisting of two radio-over-fiber links and a 5 m wireless link in the 100-GHz band. The proposed system with simple antenna sites and optical transceivers can facilitate the deployment of ultra-dense small cells in high-frequency bands in beyond-5G networks.

  • Electro-optic modulator for compensation of third-order intermodulation distortion using frequency chirp modulation

    Daichi Furubayashi, Yuta Kashiwagi, Takanori Sato, Tadashi Kawai, Akira Enokihara, Naokatsu Yamamoto, Tetsuya Kawanishi

    IEICE Transactions on Electronics   E103C ( 11 ) 653 - 660  2020年11月

     概要を見る

    A new structure of the electro-optic modulator to compensate the third-order intermodulation distortion (IMD3) is introduced. The modulator includes two Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs) operating with frequency chirp and the two modulated outputs are combined with an adequate phase difference. We revealed by theoretical analysis and numerical calculations that the IMD3 components in the receiver output could be selectively suppressed when the two MZMs operate with chirp parameters of opposite signs to each other. Spectral power of the IMD3 components in the proposed modulator was more than 15 dB lower than that in a normal Mach-Zehnder modulator at modulation index between 0.15 and 0.25 rad. The IMD3 compensation properties of the proposed modulator was experimentally confirmed by using a dual parallel Mach-Zehnder modulator (DPMZM) structure. We designed and fabricated the modulator with the single-chip structure and the single-input operation by integrating with 180. hybrid coupler on the modulator substrate. Modulation signals were applied to each modulation electrode by the 180. hybrid coupler to set the chirp parameters of two MZMs of the DPMZM. The properties of the fabricated modulator were measured by using 10 GHz two-tone signals. The performance of the IMD3 compensation agreed with that in the calculation. It was confirmed that the IMD3 compensation could be realized even by the fabricated modulator structure.

    To alleviate the danger of foreign object debris on runways, Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave linear cell radar based detection systems have been evaluated in the literature. This radar uses a 90 GHz millimeter wave and radio-over-fiber (RoF) to achieve high detection accuracy and low cost. This paper reports the experimental results of interference mitigation experiments at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. False images formed due to interference can be suppressed by performing simple signal processing on more than one radar image in which the transmission delay in RoF links is discrepant.

     概要を見る

    We propose different fronthaul systems for facilitating future mobile networks based on the seamless convergence of fiber-optic and wireless systems in the millimeter-wave (mmWave) bands. First, a flexible and high-performance wireless fronthaul system is proposed through an encapsulation of radio signals onto a converged fiber-mmWave system. A simultaneous transmission of three radio signals over the system is successfully demonstrated. Second, a high-performance optical self-heterodyne system is proposed and demonstrated for the generation and transmission of radio access signals in high-frequency bands. Third, a high-spectral-efficiency optical fronthaul system for the simultaneous transmission of multiple radio signals in different frequency bands is proposed using a subcarrier-multiplexing intermediate-frequency-over-fiber system. Satisfactory performance is experimentally confirmed for the transmission of three different radio signals in the microwave and low- and high-mmWave bands. The proposed systems can overcome the challenges and bottlenecks of the current mobile fronthaul systems and can be useful in different usage scenarios of 5G and beyond networks.

    We developed a high-speed and handover-free communication network for high-speed trains (HSTs) using an ultrafast and switchable wavelength-division multiplexing fiber-wireless backhaul system in the W band. We successfully transmitted approximately 20-Gb/s and 10-Gb/s signals over the switched fiber-wireless links in the downlink and uplink directions, respectively. An ultrafast radio-cell switching of less than 10 μs was experimentally demonstrated in both downlink and uplink directions. Moreover, the possibility of connecting a central station to many remote radio cells was evaluated, confirming that an uninterrupted communication network up to several tens of kilometers can be achieved for HSTs. The proposed system can overcome the current challenges in mobile networks and can provide a potential solution for the provision of advanced services to users on HSTs in future 5G and beyond networks.

    As fifth-generation (5G) technology is expected to offer super-broadband mobile services with new features such as low latency for critical applications and low-power operation for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, it will use wireless interfaces for small or spot cells with a new RF resource, the high band (frequencies above 6 GHz), in addition to the low band (below 6 GHz) on macro and small cells coexisting with conventional mobile technologies [1]-[4]. Another feature of 5G wireless interfaces is more precise control of radio waves in space division through the use of multi-antenna technologies, such as massive multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) or beamforming [5].

    IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics   24 ( 2 )  2018年03月

     概要を見る

    We report on the use of 30 and 100 GHz integrated millimeter-wave photoreceivers in high data rate photonic wireless communication. The role of the bandwidth of a narrow-band photoreceiver in increasing the data rate of wireless single carrier transmission is discussed. An 11-GHz bandwidth photoreceiver achieved a data rate of 44.6 Gb/s using an 8 GBd, 64-QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) signal. A wider bandwidth (19 GHz) integrated photoreceiver was designed and fabricated for use in the 100-GHz range. High-frequency response photoreceivers have the following advantages: they operate in a wide bandwidth easily, use frequency resources efficiently, and are subject to low amounts of atmospheric attenuation. In addition to the single carrier wireless transmission study, a high data rate (12 Gb/s) multicarrier radio over fiber (16-QAM in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) transmission experiment was demonstrated in order to confirm the ability to increase the data rate with a wide operational bandwidth.

    We discuss and propose millimeter-wave linear cell systems for signal distribution on railway radiocommunication systems between train and trackside, and a foreign object debris detection system for airport runways using the radio-over-fiber network technology. Linear cell configurations based on wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) and power-splitter-based distribution networks are discussed and demonstrated experimentally. A single-sideband modulation for data transmission in an intermediate frequency over a fiber system is successfully transmitted with an ultrafast wavelength-tunable laser diode for WDM routing to track the train car within 3 μs. Radar signal distribution by an optical double-sideband suppressed-carrier modulation mitigates the dispersion effect of the fiber cable to transmit a 32-GHz signal into the remote radar heads.

  • Precise Optical Modulation Using Extinction-Ratio and Chirp Tunable Single-Drive Mach-Zehnder Modulator

    JOURNAL OF LIGHTWAVE TECHNOLOGY   35 ( 21 ) 4781 - 4788  2017年11月  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    We analyzed the complex transfer function and modulation spectrum of the Mach-Zehnder (MZ) modulator with optical power and phase change imbalances. From the calculations, we found that the characteristic operation can be obtained in three cases: high extinction ratio, zero-chirp, and straight-line trajectory in the IQ plane. However, the results also indicate that we cannot achieve an operation equivalent to that of the ideal modulator, due to the small parasitic chirp in a single-drive modulator. To control the extinction ratio and chirp parameter individually, we propose an integrated modulator with some tunable Y-branches. By using the optical-power-imbalance tunable modulators, we experimentally demonstrate the characteristic operations and obtain the modulation spectrum equivalent to the ideal MZ modulator. However, compared to the ideal amplitude modulator, MZ modulators exhibit an intrinsic nonlinearity in the sinusoidal response. Therefore, we used a third-order nonlinearity compensation method using the superposition of electrical third-order harmonics. The measured spectrum consisted of only first-order modulation sidebands, which is equivalent to the ideal double-sideband suppressed-carrier modulation.

Since the precise control of multistep thickness in one etalon plate was achieved, the frequency separation of the few-mode laser can be changed by choosing the etalon position. We can change the frequency separation from 83 to 104 GHz by using this method.

    We present a 100-GHz integrated photoreceiver using an optical-to-radio converter and an enhancement-mode PHEMT amplifier driven by all optical resources without an external electric power supply. Technology for the simultaneous generation of radio and power was developed using a zero-bias operational uni-travelling carrier (UTC) high-speed photodetector. To improve the optical-to-electrical conversion efficiency, a 110-GHz enhancement-mode InP-PHEMT amplifier was also newly developed, which operates using an internal electric power supply in an optical-to-radio converter. Using a hybrid integration based on all optical resources, a +5.5 dBm RF output at 97 GHz was successfully achieved through the optical-to-radio conversion process. Herein, the two key devices and the integrated photoreceiver are discussed.

    This paper describes the concept of sensor over fibres (SoF), consisting of many sensor heads connected by fibre networks. SoF transfer waveforms from the sensor heads and performs joint signal processing to achieve high-resolution and agile imaging, while wireless sensor networks are digital networks to collect measured data at small sensors. SoF can compile information from sensor heads coherently at central signal processing units. We will also show applications of SoF technologies, such as high resolution millimetre-wave radar for airport runway surveillance.

A zero-bias operational high-speed photodetector (3-dB bandwidth >100 GHz) could be applied for the optical-to-radio converter, taking significant advantage of no-bias feed 100-GHz operation. We have successfully demonstrated simultaneous radio and power generation from one device through a bias-T circuit. A 100-GHz pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor amplifier allowed a hybrid integrated photoreceiver to enhance the O/E conversion gain. Using the generated electric power, a gate bias in the 100-GHz amplifier was driven. The performance of each device and the integrated photoreceiver is described. High data rate photonic wireless transmission based on photonic power supply without external electric power supply is demonstrated.

  • Coexistence and transmission of multiple radios over seamless fiber-wireless systems

    Tien Dat, Pham, Kanno, Atsushi, Yamamoto, Naokatsu, Kawanishi, Tetsuya

    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering   10128  2017年01月  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    © 2017 COPYRIGHT SPIE.In this paper, we present efficient solutions for simultaneous transmission of multiple radio signals over seamless fiber wireless systems, including radio signals in legacy microwave bands and in high frequency bands. At central stations, radio signals can be mapped onto the same optical transport channel using data mapping algorithms and/or subcarrier multiplexing technique. After the fiber transmission, the received signals can be down-converted, digitized, and de-mapped to recover the originally transmitted signals. We present and compare two different methods, including a radio-over-fiber system and optical up-conversion at remote sites and an intermediate-frequency-over-fiber system and an electrical up-conversion at remote sites. We experimentally confirm the suitability of both the transmission methods, and achieve satisfactory performance for all signals, including LTE-advanced, orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing, and filtered-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing signals. In particular, the latter method can provide a high optical spectral efficiency and low fiber dispersion effect and is suitable for ultra-dense small cell deployment in future mobile networks.

     概要を見る

    We present a double cladding, high-mesa-type waveguide UTC photodetector with an improved the responsivity. In this device structure, an InGaAs thin core layer was sandwiched by p-InP/InGaAsP and n-InP/InGaAsP cladding layers, including a UTC structure, in order to obtain a good optical coupling between the waveguide and the fiber. By comparing the resulting mode field with that obtained with a single cladding layer structure, we confirmed that the vertical mode field was enlarged. Without a spot size converter, the measured responsivity was as high as 0.6 A/W at 1550 nm, which suggests a responsivity three times higher than that of back-illuminated structures, and higher responsivity than that of previous reports. A high frequency performance (f(3dB) = 100 GHz) was also measured. The device structure, including the layer, doping level conditions, and optical fiber coupling results are discussed, and its performance is characterized in detail.

By using multi-layered structures, larger antenna gain can be obtained to induce stronger millimeter-wave electric fields. The induced millimeter-wave electric field can be used for optical modulation through the Pockels effects of the EO crystal. Since the antenna gain is enhanced by using multi-layered stacked patch-antennas, the modulation index improvement can be obtained.

  • Wide Frequency Range Optical Synthesizer With High-Frequency Resolution

    IEEE PHOTONICS TECHNOLOGY LETTERS   29 ( 1 ) 78 - 81  2017年01月  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    The generation of high-frequency signals including those in the terahertz region has become indispensable in state-of-the-art communication systems. A synthesizer as a measurement device generates signals of desired frequencies with high-frequency resolution. Electric signals (microwaves or millimeter waves) can be generated by a photomixer performing optical-electrical energy conversion based on the phase difference between two coherent optical signals. Recently, the frequency bandwidth for photomixers has reached the terahertz region and photomixers are now more readily available. The main purpose of this letter is to provide an optical synthesizer with a high-frequency resolution (better than 1 Hz) and with seamless frequency coverage from the microwave to the terahertz-wave regions using one apparatus. The system is designed in such a way that the mean of the resolution frequency includes the frequency instability of the generated signal.

    Mobile transport networks will play a vital role in future 5G and beyond networks. In particular, access transport networks connecting radio access with core networks are of critical importance. They will be required to support massive connectivity, super high data rates, and real-time services in a ubiquitous environment. To attain these targets, transport networks should be constructed on the basis of a variety of technologies and methods, depending on application scenarios, geographic areas, and deployment models. In this article, we present several technologies, including analog radio-over-fiber transmission, intermediate-frequency-over-fiber technology, radio-on-radio transmission, and the convergence of fiber and millimeter-wave systems, that can facilitate building such effective transport networks in many use cases. For each technology, we present the system concept, possible application cases, and demonstration results. We also discuss potential standardization and development directions so the proposed technologies can be widely used.

Compared to the single-band and multiband OFDM signal transmission, the proposed system can provide a much better performance, particularly at the edges of each band.

    © 2016 IEEE.The rat-race (RR) circuit, which operates as a 180-degree hybrid, with an asymmetric power split ratio was integrated with the dual electrode type electro-optic modulator on the same substrate. Thereby, frequency chirp modulation with a compact configuration was realized. The RR circuit was designed with 4.5 1 power split ratio on a z-cut LiNbO3 substrate. The operation of the modulator was confirmed by observing the output light spectra. Moreover, the chirp parameter was directly measured by using the chromic dispersion of the optical fiber, where the power penalty of detected modulation signals transmitted through optical fiber was observed as a function of the fiber distance. The chirp parameter of the modulated light at 10 GHz was confirmed to be 0.47 by the measurement.

  • Array of patch-antennas with meandering-gaps on optical modulator for wireless millimeter-wave beam-steering

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MICROWAVE AND WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES   8 ( 4-5 ) 759 - 765  2016年06月  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    An array of patch-antennas with meandering-gaps on an optical modulator is proposed for wireless millimeter-wave beam-steering through high-speed radio-over-fiber systems. Wireless millimeter-wave can be received by the array of patch-antennas and directly modulated to lightwave by the optical modulator. The wireless millimeter-wave can be steered using the meandering-gaps at the patch-antennas by controlling interaction between millimeter-wave and lightwave electric fields in electro-optic modulation. The basic operation and analysis of the proposed device are discussed. In the experiment, 5 x 5 antenna array in 40 GHz millimeter-wave bands was designed and realized for device characterization and demonstration to wireless millimeter-wave beam-steering. There were five variations of wireless millimeter-wave beam-steering for one-dimensional in xz- or yz-planes that can be obtained with wireless millimeter-wave steerable beams of about +/- 30 degrees. Additionally, 25 variations of wireless beam-steering can be obtained for two dimension in xyz-space through orthogonal optical modulation. The proposed device is promising to be applied in millimeter-wave/tera-hertz bands for future directional wireless communication and sensing with high-speed and high-resolution operation.

     概要を見る

    In order to adapt to the dynamics in the future optical networks, we propose and experimentally demonstrate two flexible high-order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) transmitter schemes: (a) a flexible transmitter using a tandem in-phase/quadrature modulators for generating 16QAM, 32QAM, 64QAM signals; and (b) a scheme based on monolithically integrated quad-Mach-Zehnder in-phase/quadrature with binary driving electronics for synthesizing minimum phase-shift keying (MSK), quadrature phase-shift-keying (QPSK), 8-ary phase-shift keying (8PSK), and 16QAM. These schemes provide different approaches to configure a flexible high-order QAM transmitter, either using cascaded off-the-shelf modulators or via highly integrated monolithic modulator. These flexible and reconfigurable transmitter schemes exhibit different characteristics in terms of system performance, which provides the network operators different flexible transmitter solutions suitable for different application scenarios in elastic optical networks.

    © 2015 The Institute of Electronics, Information and Comm.We report current research progress on a metamaterial antenna integrated to an optical modulator for millimeter-wave-photonic links. The metamaterial antenna is composed by an array of electric-LC resonators on a LiNbO3 optical crystal. Large millimeter-wave electric field is induced across the capacitive gaps of the resonators due to free-space millimeter-wave irradiation. Optical modulation through Pockels effects can be obtained when light propagates along the capacitive gaps. The integrated device is operated effectively by considering interaction between millimeter-wave and lightwave electric fields along the capacitive gaps. Basic operations of the integrated device for 90GHz millimeter-wave bands are reported and discussed. Optical sidebands with carrier-to-sideband ratio of about ™60dB by millimeter-wave irradiation power of ∼20mW can be experimentally measured using optical spectrum analyzer.

     概要を見る

    A monolithically integrated quantum dot (QD) optical gain modulator (OGM) with a QD semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) was successfully developed with T-band (1.0 mu m waveband) and O-band (1.3 mu m waveband) QD optical gain materials for Gbps-order, high-speed optical data generation. The insertion loss due to coupling between the device and the optical fiber was effectively compensated for by the SOA section. It was also confirmed that the monolithic QD-OGM/SOA device enabled &gt;4.8 Gbps optical data generation with a clear eye opening in the T-band. Furthermore, we successfully demonstrated error-free 4.8 Gbps optical data transmissions in each of the six wavelength channels over a 10-km-long photonic crystal fiber using the monolithic QD-OGM/SOA device in multiple O-band wavelength channels, which were generated by the single QD gain chip. These results suggest that the monolithic QD-OGM/SOA device will be advantageous in ultra-broadband optical frequency systems that utilize the T+O-band for short-and medium-range optical communications.

    A heterogeneous wavelength-tunable laser diode combining quantum dot and silicon photonics technologies is proposed. A compact wavelength-tunable filter with two ring resonators was carefully designed and fabricated using silicon photonics technology. The tunable laser combining the wavelength-tunable filter and an optical amplifier, which includes InAs quantum dots, achieved a 44.0 nm wavelength-tuning range at around 1250 nm. The broadband optical gain of the quantum dot optical amplifier was effectively used by the optimized wavelength-tunable filter. This heterogeneous wavelength-tunable laser diode could become a breakthrough technology for high-capacity data transmission systems. (C) 2016 The Japan Society of Applied Physics

    <p>This paper proposes a high-speed multiband filtered-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (F-OFDM) signal transmission over a seamless fiber-millimeter-wave (MMW) system at 92.5 GHz. The system employs a frequency and phase stabilized optical MMW signal generation at the transmitter and a simple direct detection at the receiver. We confirm a successful transmission of multiband F-OFDM signal over a seamless 20-km single mode fiber (SMF) and 1-m 92.5-GHz wireless system. Compared to the single-band and multiband OFDM signal transmission, the proposed system can provide a much better performance, particularly at the edges of each band.</p>

     概要を見る

    © 2016 SPIE.A seamless combination of fiber and millimeter-wave (MMW) systems can be very attractive for future heterogeneous mobile networks such as 5G because of its flexibility and high bandwidth. Analog mobile signal transmission over seamless fiber-MMW systems is very promising to reduce the latency and the required band-width, and to simplify the systems. However, stable and high-performance seamless systems are indispensable to conserve the quality of the analog signal transmission. In this paper, we present several technologies to develop such seamless fiber-MMW systems. In the downlink direction, a high-performance system can be realized using a high-quality optical MMW signal generator and a self-homodyne MMW signal detector. In the uplink direction, a cascade of radio-on-radio and radio-over-fiber systems using a burst-mode optical amplifier can support bursty radio signal transmission. A full-duplex transmission with negligible interference effects can be realized using frequency multiplexing in the radio link and wavelength-division multiplexing in the optical link. A high-spectral efficiency MMW-over-fiber system using an intermediate frequency-over-fiber system and a high-quality remote delivery of a local oscillator signal is highly desirable to reduce the costs.

    © 2016 SPIE.A 100-GHz narrowband photoreceiver module integrated with a zero-bias operational uni-traveling-carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) and a GaAs-based pseudomorphic high-electron-mobility transistor (pHEMT) amplifier was fabricated and characterized. Both devices exhibited flat frequency response and outstanding overall performance. The UTC-PD showed a 3-dB bandwidth beyond 110 GHz while the pHEMT amplifier featured low power consumption and a gain of 24 dB over the 85-100 GHz range. A butterfly metal package equipped with a 1.0 mm (W) coaxial connector and a microstrip-coplanar waveguide conversion substrate was designed for low insertion loss and low return loss. The fabricated photoreceiver module demonstrated high conversion gain, a maximum output power of +9.5 dBm at 96 GHz, and DC-power consumption of 0.21 W.

     概要を見る

    Conversion devices between free-space microwave/millimeter-wave and lightwave signals are required in Fiber-Wireless (Fi-Wi) links. In this paper, we propose a free-space millimeter-wave Electro-Optic (EO) modulator using Quasi-Phase-Matching (QPM) gap-embedded-patch-antennas on a low dielectric constant substrate. Free-space millimeter-wave signals can be received and converted directly to lightwave signals using the proposed device. It can be operated passively with no external power supply and operated with extremely low millimeter-wave losses. The QPM array structure can be adopted for improving modulation efficiency by considering the transit-time effects. The proposed device is easy connected to optical fiber, therefore Fi-Wi can be realized using the proposed device. Basic structure, analysis, and experimental results of the proposed device are discussed and reported for 40 GHz operational millimeter-wave bands.

     概要を見る

    We propose a flexible and high-performance fronthaul system for future mobile networks using a seamless combination of fiber-optic and millimeter-wave (MMW) systems. The proposed system employs a high-quality optical MMW signal generation at the transmitter and a stable and high-performance MMW self-homodyne detection at the receiver. In the downlink direction, successful transmission of intraband and interband carrier aggregation (CA) long-term evolution-advanced (LTE-A) signals over the system is experimentally confirmed. We also confirm satisfactory performance for the transmission over a fiber-wireless bridge using a cascade of the seamless system and a conventional radio-over-fiber (RoF) link. In the uplink direction, we successfully demonstrate the transmission of an intraband CA LTE-A signal over a cascade of a radio-on-radio and a RoF system. In addition, we confirm that the full-duplex transmission of LTE-A signals over the proposed bidirectional system does not experience performance degradation compared to the case with half-duplex transmission. The proposed system is a potential solution for mobile-signal transmission in future networks.

    © 2016 IEEE. In wireless communications, the data traffic increases rapidly every year, as well as in fixed optical fiber communications, where the trend for data traffic is not saturated yet. In the next generation of advanced wireless communication services, a high data rate, high capacity, low latency, and low cost are desired. The large radio cover area for present macro-cell should be divided into plenty of small-cells in order to mitigate heavy data traffic in the one macro-cell [1]. Here, radio over fiber (RoF) is a promising technology for access networks such as mobile back-haul and front-haul in wireless communication. High data rate transmission through optical fibers should be introduced near end-user points and be converted to radio signals from simple antennas in small-cells. Here, a high speed photoreceiver is one of key components in RoF communications. On the other hand, power over fiber (PoF) technology, which provides electric power supply through optical fibers, is a compatible technology with a good affinity to RoF technology. The 90 to 110 GHz band is a very attractive frequency band, which involves not only low atmospheric attenuation [2] but also a wider bandwidth compared to that in the microwave region.

  • Key Technologies for Millimeter-Wave Distributed RADAR System over A Radio Over Fiber Network

    Atsushi Kanno, Toshimasa Umezawa, Toshiaki Kuri, Naokatsu Yamamoto, Yusuf Nur Wijayanto, Tetsuya Kawanishi

    PROCEEDINGS OF 2016 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON RADAR, ANTENNA, MICROWAVE, ELECTRONICS, AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS (ICRAMET)     1 - 6  2016年  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    We discuss key device technologies for realization of an optical-fiber-network-connected distributed radar system in the millimeter-wave band using radio over fiber techniques. The radio over fiber technique is useful for precise signal generation and distribution over the fiber network. In the scenario, each millimeter-wave radar head is not necessary to be equipped with aprecision radar signal source; low cost and low energy consumption radar head will be realized. For connection to the optical network, advanced high-speed optical/electrical converters are developed for signal conversion from/to optical signals in 90-GHz band directly in a central office and each radar head. A signal-to-noise power ratio of generated 90-GHz optical signal was achieved larger than 30 dB: enough quality to use in the radar system. An optical switching technique is useful not only for routing the optical signal to the radar heads but also for filtering unnecessary optical components. These device technologies are applicable for distributed millimeter-wave radar systems.

    We have proposed a new electro-optic signal converter which enables us to convert wireless millimeter-wave signals to Iightwave signals. This is based on a LiNbO3 guided-wave optical modulator combined with vertically-stacked planar patch antennas embedded with a narrow (similar to 5 mu m) gap. Utilizing the stacked structure, the antenna gain, antenna area, and electric field for optical modulation are increased, so that the signal conversion efficiency is increased by 3.65 dB at 60 GHz.

     概要を見る

    A terahertz-wave communication system directly connected to an optical fiber network is promising for application to future mobile backhaul and fronthaul links. The possible broad bandwidth in the terahertz band is useful for high-speed signal transmission as well as radio-space encapsulation to the high-frequency carrier. In both cases, the low-latency feature becomes important to enhance the throughput in mobile communication and is realized by waveform transport technology without any digital-signal-processing-basedmedia conversion. A highly precise optical frequency comb signal generated by optical modulation and the vector signal demodulation technology adopted from advanced optical fiber communication technologies help perform modulation and demodulation with impairment compensation at just the edges of the link.

  • RADIO-ON-RADIO-OVER-FIBER: EFFICIENT FRONTHAULING FOR SMALL CELLS AND MOVING CELLS

     概要を見る

    A combination of fiber and radio links would be attractive for efficient fronthauling to small cells and moving cells. However, achieving connectivity by using wired-wireless media converters significantly increases system complexity, power consumption, and latency. A seamless combination of fiber and radio links in which photonics-based technologies are used to generate and transmit radiowave signals is more suitable. In this article, we present an overview of fiber-radio link combination for mobile signal transmission. We propose an efficient solution for future mobile fronthauling based on the analog transmission of mobile signals over a bidirectional seamless system. We discuss the potential as well as the challenges and perspectives of the systems applied for mobile fronthauling in small-cell-and moving-cell-based networks. We also present a proof-of-concept demonstration of the transmission of mobile signals over the system. Satisfactory performance is obtained for different high-speed advanced signals. The transmission range over fiber links and the estimated range of the radio links are sufficiently long to facilitate the practical implementation of the system. The system is scalable to include new deployments of small cells and wireless services using wavelength-division and subcarrier multiplexing techniques. It can provide a high-speed, low-latency, and flexible solution for fronthauling in new emerging wireless systems such as 5G networks.

  • Laser-phase-fluctuation-insensitive offset-frequency-spaced two-tone optical coherent detection scheme and its transmission for radio-over-fiber systems

     概要を見る

    We propose a new optical coherent detection scheme with a "two-tone" local light, which is also in principle insensitive to the laser phase fluctuation and is assisted by the digital signal processing technique for radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems. The main feature of our proposal is that the frequency separation of the two-tone local light is different from that of the RoF signal, which is called "offset-frequency-spaced" in this paper. First, we explain the principle of our new proposal and experimentally demonstrate the data recovery. Then, the influence of the frequency detuning between photo-detected modulated and unmodulated signals is discussed. Moreover, the transmission performance with an error vector magnitude (EVM) is evaluated for the optical coherent detection of a 10-Gbaud quadrature-phase-shift-keying RoF signal after a 20-km-long standard single-mode fiber transmission.

  • Low Chirp Modulation by Electro-Optic Intensity Modulator Using Microwave 180-Degree Hybrid Directly Formed on LiNbO3 Substrate

     概要を見る

    An electro-optic (EO) modulator integrated with the microwave planar circuit directly formed on a LiNbO3 (LN) substrate for low frequency-chirp performance and compact configuration is introduced. Frequency chirp of EO intensity modulators was investigated and a dual-electrode Mach-Zehnder (MZ) modulator combined with a microwave rat-race (RR) circuit was considered for the low-chirp modulation. The RR circuit, which operates as a 180-degree hybrid, was designed on a z-cut LN substrate to create two modulation signals of the same amplitude in anti-phase with each other from a single input signal. Output ports of the RR were connected to the modulation electrodes on the substrate. The two signals of the equal amplitude drive two phase modulation parts of the modulator so that the symmetric interference are realized to obtain intensity modulation of low frequency-chirp. The modulator was designed and fabricated on a single LN substrate for around 10 GHz modulation frequencies and 1550 nm light wavelength. The chirp parameters were measured to be less than 0.2 in the frequency range between 8 and 12 GHz. By compensating imbalance of the light power splitting in the waveguide MZ interferometer the chirp could be reduced even more.

  • Compact Electro-Optic Single Sideband Modulators Utilizing Miniaturized Branch-Line Couplers on LiNbO3 Substrate

     概要を見る

    Optical single sideband (SSB) modulation with the Mach-Zehnder (MZ) interferometer was realized by integrating the modulation electrode with the branch-line coupler (BLC) as a 90-degree hybrid onto the modulator substrate. In this paper, BLCs of the microsrtip-line structure were miniaturized on modulator substrates, LiNbO3 (LN), to realize more compact optical SSB modulators. We introduced two techniques of miniaturizing the BLC, one is using periodically installed open-circuited stabs and the other is installing series capacitors. Compared with a conventional pattern of the BLC, an area of the miniaturized BLC by using periodically installed open-circuited stubs was reduced to about 50%, and that by installing series capacitors was done to about 60%. The operation of these miniaturized BLCs was experimentally confirmed as the 90-degree hybrid at around 10GHz. Output ports of each miniaturized BLC were directly connected with the modulation electrode on the modulator substrate. Thereby, we fabricated two types of compact SSB modulators for 1550nm light wavelength. In the experiments, the optical SSB modulation was successfully confirmed by the output light spectra and the sideband suppression ratio of more than 30dB were observed.

    In dynamic optical networking scenarios, it is desirable that the optical transmitter chooses the most suitable modulation format in order to achieve optimal transmission performance. Owing to the ability of switching among different modulation formats, flexible optical transmitters based on reconfigurable optical devices are becoming a key component for the implementation of future flexible optical networks. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate a flexible 8-ary transmitter to achieve adaptive switching between 8-ary phase-shift keying (8PSK) and circular 8-ary quadrature-amplitude modulation (8QAM) through reconfiguration of two cascaded in-phase/quadrature (IQ) modulators with different driving signals and biasing conditions. An arbitrary binary quadrature-amplitude modulation (2QAM) with constant or non-constant amplitude is proposed and experimentally demonstrated using an IQ modulator. Then, optical 8PSK or 8QAM modulation formats are successfully synthesized when a standard squared QPSK modulator is cascaded with a constant-amplitude or non-constant-amplitude 2QAM, respectively.

  • Performance of Uplink Packetized LTE-A Signal Transmission on a Cascaded Radio-on-Radio and Radio-over-Fiber System

     概要を見る

    In this paper, we propose a flexible and high-capacity front-haul link for the uplink transmission of high-speed mobile signals using a cascade of radio-on-radio (RoR) and radio-over-fiber (RoF) systems. To emulate the cases that may occur in the uplink direction, we experimentally investigate the performance of superposing an uplink bursty LTE-A signal on the cascaded system using optical packet signal transmission. The performance of systems using different types of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs), including a high-transient EDFA, an automatic-gain-control EDFA, and a burst-mode (BM) EDFA is evaluated and compared. We confirm that the dynamic transience of the EDFAs has a significant influence on the signal performance. By using a BM-EDFA, we confirm successful transmission of the uplink packetized LTE-A signal on the cascaded system. Both the measured error vector magnitude and the received optical power range metrics exceed the requirements. We also estimate the maximum transmission range of the RoR link, and it is confirmed that a sufficiently long range could be achieved for the applications in mobile front-haul networks.

    We report the adaptability of the burst-mode erbium-doped fiber amplifier (BM-EDFA) for uplink transmission of sharply rising analog radio-over-fiber (RoF) signals by using long-term evolution (LTE) -Advanced format on a mobile front-haul. Recent drastically increased mobile data traffic is boosting the demand for high-speed radio communication technologies for next-generation mobile services to enhance user experience. However, the latency become increasingly visible as serious issues. Analog RoF technology is a promising candidate for a next generation mobile front-haul to realize low latency. For the uplink, an RoF signal may rise sharply in response to a burst of in-coming radio signals. We propose that a newly developed BM-EDFA is applied for such a sharply rising RoF signal transmission. The BM-EDFA that we designed using enhanced intrinsic saturation power EDF to suppress the gain transient caused by received optical power fluctuations with optical feedback. The new BM-EDFA was designed for a wider linear output power range and lower NF than the previous BM-EDFA. The observed range of received optical power satisfying an error vector magnitude of less than 8%rms achieved over 16 dB. We consider that our BM-EDFAs with wide linear ranges of output power will be a key device for the LTE-Advanced RoF uplink signal transmission via optical access networks for the next-generation mobile front-haul.

     概要を見る

    A millimeter-wave radar receiver using a z-cut LiNbO3 optical modulator with orthogonal-gap-embedded patch-antennas on a low-k dielectric material is proposed. A millimeter-wave from a reflected radar signal can be received by the patch-antennas and converted directly to a lightwave through electro-optic modulation. A low-k dielectric material is used as a substrate for improving antenna gain. Additionally, an interaction length between millimeter-wave and lightwave electric fields becomes long. As a result, large modulation efficiency can be obtained, which is proportional to sensitivity of the millimeter-wave radar receiver. Optical millimeter-wave radar beam-forming can be obtained using the proposed device with meandering-gaps for controlling interaction between millimeter-wave and lightwave electric fields in electro-optic modulation. Analysis and experimentally demonstration of the proposed device are discussed and reported for 40GHz millimeter-wave bands. Optical millimeter-wave radar beam-forming in 2-D is also discussed.

    This paper describes photonic technologies for millimeter-wave generation and distribution. External modulation would be useful for stable and high-quality radio-over-fiber signal generation, where frequency stability and spurious suppression are very important for radio services such as mobile communications, radio locations etc. This paper provides outline of radio-over-fiber signal generation techniques. Precise and high-speed light-wave optical modulation would play important roles for suppression of undesired spectrum components. Photonic harmonic generation would be useful for very high-frequency signals. Reciprocating optical modulators consisting of optical modulators and fiber Bragg gratings can provide optical modulation by sub-THz signals.

    2015 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMMUNICATIONS (ICC)     1364 - 1369  2015年  [査読有り]

     概要を見る

    In this paper, we propose a high-speed wireless signal transmission over a simple analog intensity modulation/ direct detection (IM/DD) fiber-millimeter-wave (MMW) system at 92.5 GHz. The system employs a frequency and phase stabilized optical MMW signal generation at transmitter and a simple direct detection at receiver. We confirm a successful transmission of 10Gb/s 16-QAM OFDM-based wireless signal over a seamless 8-km SMF and 27-cm 92.5-GHz wireless system. To further increase the fiber transmission range, we use a simple adaptive modulation approach. Successful transmission over 10-km single mode fiber (SMF) system is confirmed for a 8.1 Gb/s wireless signal using both 16-QAM and QPSK modulation. We also estimate the maximum transmission range for the MMW link, and it is proved that a transmission over a 1-km MMW link can be achieved. Both the confirmed fiber length and estimated MMW range are sufficiently long for future mobile front-haul systems in next generation wireless networks. The system therefore can provide a high-speed, low-latency, and flexible solution for front-hauling in new emerging wireless systems such as 5G mobile networks.

     概要を見る

    © 2015 IEEE.High-precision imaging technology and its application are highly demanded for the enhancement of civil security. They are used to help prevent major incidents in railways or airports. In these applications, both small object detection and high-range resolution are key features. As far as the detectable target size is concerned, a high-frequency carrier is indispensable in radar systems. However, a radio signal with millimeter-wave (high frequency) suffers from large atmospheric attenuation. For example, the attenuation coefficient at 90 GHz is estimated to be 1 dB/km, while it is less than 0.1 dB/km in microwave bands [1]. Thus, the radar signal will have to originate from an area close to the target. Setting up a radar system with a synthesizer close to the target might not be desirable because a high-precision electrical synthesizer is generally large and consumes high energy. Radio-over-fiber (RoF) technology, used to transport the signal over optical fibers, is a promising candidate to deliver the millimeter-wave signal to the suitable point over a low-loss optical fiber cable. Radars utilizing the RoF technology have already been reported; however, digital signal processing in remote radar heads was required to reduce large transmission data [2, 3].

     概要を見る

    In addition to new radio technologies, end-to-end transport networks will play a vital role in future 5G (and beyond) networks. In particular, access transport networks connecting radio access with core networks are of critical importance. They should be able to support massive connectivity, super high data rates, and real time services in a ubiquitous environment. To attain these targets, transport networks should be constructed on the basis of a variety of technologies and methods, depending on application scenarios, geographical areas, and deployment models. In this paper, we present several technologies, including analog radio-over-fiber transmission, intermediate-frequency-over-fiber technology, radio-on-radio transmission, and the convergence of fiber and millimeter-wave systems, that can facilitate building such effective transport networks in many use cases. For each technology, we present the system concept, possible application cases, and some demonstration results. We also discuss potential standardization and development directions so that the proposed technologies can be widely used.

    In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate simultaneous multichannel wavelength multicasting (MWM) and exclusive-OR logic gate multicasting (XOR-LGM) for three 10Gbps non-return-to-zero differential phase-shift-keying (NRZ-DPSK) signals in quantum-dot semiconductor optical amplifier (QD-SOA) by exploiting the four-wave mixing (FWM) process. No additional pump is needed in the scheme. Through the interaction of the input three 10Gbps DPSK signal lights in QD-SOA, each channel is successfully multicasted to three wavelengths (1-to-3 for each), totally 3-to-9 MWM, and at the same time, three-output XOR-LGM is obtained at three different wavelengths. All the new generated channels are with a power penalty less than 1.2dB at a BER of 10(-9). Degenerate and non-degenerate FWM components are fully used in the experiment for data and logic multicasting. (C) 2014 Optical Society of America

     概要を見る

    We investigate a high-capacity, space-division-multiplexed (SDM) transmission system using self-homodyne detection (SHD) in multicore fiber (MCF). We first investigate SHD phase noise cancellation with both kHz and MHz range linewidths for both quadrature-phase shift-keyed (QPSK) and 16 quadrature-amplitude modulation (16QAM) signals, finding that phase noise cancellation in SHD enabled transmission with MHz linewidth lasers that resulted in error floors when using intradyne detection. We then demonstrate a high throughput SHD transmission system using low-cost, MHz linewidth distributed feedback lasers. We transmit a CW pilot-tone on a single core of a 10.1 km MCF span with the remaining 18 cores used to transmit 125 wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) QPSK and polarization-division-multiplexed (PDM)-QPSK signals with 50 GHz channel spacing at 25 GBd. For PDM transmission and assuming a 7% forward-error correction overhead this is equivalent 210 Tb/s transmission with a SE of 33.4 b/s/Hz. High-capacity transmission is achieved despite high inter-core crosstalk, broad transmitter linewidth and narrow channel spacing, showing that combining SHD with MCF enables high throughput, low-cost transmission in next-generation optical networks.

    We discuss the performance of Mach-Zehnder modulators with asymmetric power-splitting Y-branches theoretically and confirmed it experimentally. The output characteristics of the modulator depend on the relationship between the power splitting ratios of the front and the back Y-branches. Even if the modulator consists of two asymmetric Y-branches, we can achieve high-extinction-ratio operation, with an additional loss as compared with the ideal case, by tuning the splitting ratio of only one of the two Y-branches. The additional loss, however, is small in many cases because the asymmetry considered here is caused by fabrication errors. (C) 2014 The Japan Society of Applied Physics

     概要を見る

    Optical wavelength conversion (OWC) is expected to be a desirable function in future optical transparent networks. Since high-order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) is more sensitive to the phase noise, in the OWC of high-order QAM signals, it is crucial to suppress the extra noise introduced in the OWC subsystem, especially for the scenario with multiple cascaded OWCs. Here, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a pump-linewidth-tolerant OWC scheme suitable for high-order QAM signals using coherent two-tone pumps. Using 3.5-MHz-linewidth distributed feedback (DFB) lasers as pump sources, our scheme enables wavelength conversion of both 16QAM and 64QAM signals with negligible power penalty, in a periodically-poled Lithium Niobate (PPLN) waveguide based OWC. We also demonstrate the performance of pump phase noise cancellation, showing that such coherent two-tone pump schemes can eliminate the need for ultra-narrow linewidth pump lasers and enable practical implementation of low-cost OWC in future dynamic optical networks.

  • Wavelength conversion of optical 64QAM through FWM in HNLF and its performance optimization by constellation monitoring

     概要を見る

    All-optical wavelength conversion (AOWC) plays an important role in the future transparent optical networks, in order to enhance the reconfigurability and non-blocking capacity. On the other hand, high-order quadrature amplitude modulations (QAMs) have been extensively studied for achieving the high-speed and high-spectral-efficiency optical transmission. Since high-order QAMs are more sensitive to phase and amplitude noise, to implement an AOWC sub-system suitable for highorder QAM signals with minimized power penalty, it is important to optimize the operation conditions in order to avoid extra nonlinear distortions co-existed in the AOWC process. Our experimental results show that, constellation monitoring provides a more intuitive and accurate approach to monitor the converted high-order QAM signals, especially in presence of nonlinear phase noise such as self-phase modulation (SPM). We experimentally demonstrate an AOWC of 64QAM signal through fourwave mixing (FWM) in highly-nonlinear (HNLF). The performance of the AOWC is optimized through the constellation monitoring of the converted signal, achieving a negligible power penalty (&lt; 0.3dB at BER of 10-3) for 60-Gbps 64QAM after conversion.

  • Multi-tone parallel coherent matched detection for demultiplexing of superchannels

    OPTICS EXPRESS   21 ( 16 ) 18602 - 18610  2013年08月  [査読有り]  [国際誌]

     概要を見る

    This paper presents multi-tone parallel coherent matched detection that orthogonally detects superchannels without crosstalk between neighboring channels. The receiver consists of multiple sets of multi-tone coherent matched detector employed in parallel. In each detector, the received superchannels signal is homodyne mixed in multi frequency with locally generated multi-tone optical frequency comb; detected is a signal set that has the amplitude and phase exactly matched with the local comb. By launching orthogonal sets of local comb to the multiple parallel coherent matched detectors, the received superchannels are orthogonally downconverted to the baseband frequencies keeping the amplitude and phase information of all channels included. With an aid of n x n transform matrix, all channels are separately recovered from the downconverted signal sets. The system does not rely on any optical filters for channel demultiplexing and separation, with increased flexibility in wavelength arrangement. In addition, the parallel configuration equivalently enhance the bandwidth of the coherent matched detector keeping the speed in each tributary channel as high as possible. In this paper, it is experimentally demonstrated that even-odd interleaved 23 x 20-Gb/s QPSK superchannels are orthogonally demultiplexed and detected by two-tone coherent matched detection.

  • Flexible high-order QAM transmitter using tandem IQ modulators for generating 16/32/36/64-QAM with balanced complexity in electronics and optics

    OPTICS EXPRESS   21 ( 5 ) 6213 - 6223  2013年03月  [査読有り]  [国際誌]

     概要を見る

    In order to adapt to the dynamics in the future optical networks, we propose a flexible high-order QAM transmitter using a tandem in-phase/quadrature (IQ) modulators to synthesize different high-order quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) formats, such as 16QAM, 32 or 36QAM and 64QAM. To generate high-order QAMs, an offset-QAM is firstly generated using an IQ modulator driven by electronics with reduced modulation-level, and then mapped to other quadrants through another following IQ modulator configured as a standard quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) modulator. All of the embedded sub-Mach-Zehnder modulators are operated in push-pull configurations to avoid introducing excess phase chirp. In contrast with the schemes based on a single IQ modulator driven by multilevel electronics or a highly-integrated parallel modulator, by deploying commercially-available optical modulators and driving electronics with reduced modulation-level, the transmitter complexity in optics and electronics is well-balanced. In the case of generating optical 64QAM, different from another tandem scheme deploying dual-drive IQ modulator driven by independent four binary streams, less phase chirp is observed in our proposed scheme, and comparable implementation penalty is obtained even without applying additional specific compensation algorithm in the coherent receiver. Moreover, thanks to the tandem structure and the deployment of QPSK modulator, the obtained high-order QAM is naturally differentially coded, which is helpful to solve the phase ambiguity at coherent receiver. We experimentally demonstrate the generations of these high-order QAMs including 16QAM, 32/36QAM and 64QAM, and confirm the error-free operations with comparable BER performance to the "electrical" approach based on a single IQ modulator.

    We propose a coherent optical and radio seamless network concept that allows broadband access without deployment of additional optical fibers within an optical fiber dead zone while enhancing network resilience to disasters. Recently developed radio-over-fiber (RoF) and digital coherent detection technologies can seamlessly convert between optical and radio signals. A millimeter-wave radio with a capacity greater than 10 Gb/s and high-speed digital signal processing is feasible for this purpose. We provide a preliminary demonstration of a high-speed, W-band (75-110 GHz) radio that is seamlessly connected to an optical RoF transmitter using a highly accurate optical modulation technique to stabilize the center frequencies of radio signals. Using a W-band digital receiver with a sensitivity of -37 dBm, we successfully transmitted an 18.6Gb/s quadrature-phase-shift-keying signal through both air and an optical fiber.

  • Low-crosstalk balanced bridge interferometric-type optical switch for optical signal routing

    Akito Chiba, Tetsuya Kawanishi, Takahide Sakamoto, Kaoru Higuma, Kazumasa Takada, Masayuki Izutsu

    IEEE Journal on Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics   19 ( 6 )  2013年

     概要を見る

    Crosstalk is one of the significant measures of an optical cross-bar switch. In this paper, we describe a configuration for crosstalk suppression of a balanced-bridge interferometric type optical switch and its application to an optical-signal routing device. Since crosstalk of the optical switch originates from imbalance in the amplitude of a lightwave propagating within the arm of the interferometer, additional Mach-Zehnder structures were embedded for trimming the amplitude of the light. By adjusting the transmittance of the trimmers, crosstalk of less than -56 dB is achieved for dc voltage. Also, for high-frequency voltages, a crosstalk estimation procedure was developed, and crosstalk at 10-GHz sinusoidal voltage was evaluated to be -48 dB. Furthermore, based on the transient response measurement, its switching time was evaluated to be 26 ps. For a demonstration utilizing extremely low crosstalk and quick response, a guard-time-free optical signal routing experiment is also described. © 2013 IEEE.

     概要を見る

    Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) transmission of two millimeter-wave radio signals seamlessly converted from polarization-division-multiplexed quadrature-phase-shift-keying optical signals is successfully demonstrated, where a radio access unit basically consisting of only optical-to-electrical converters and a radio receiver performs total signal equalization of both the optical and the radio paths and demodulation with digital signal processing (DSP). Orthogonally polarized optical components that are directly converted to two-channel radio components can be demultiplexed and demodulated with high-speed DSP as in optical digital coherent detection. 20-Gbaud optical and radio seamless MIMO transmission provides a total capacity of 74.4 Gb/s with a forward error correction overhead of 7%.

  • Rectangular QPSK for generation of optical eight-ary phase-shift keying

    Optics Express   19 ( 19 ) 18479 - 18485  2011年09月  [査読有り]  [国際誌]

     概要を見る

    Quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) is usually generated using an in-phase/quadrature (IQ) modulator in a balanced driving-condition, showing a square-shape constellation in complex plane. This conventional QPSK is referred to as square QPSK (S-QPSK) in this paper. On the other hand, when an IQ modulator is driven in an un-balanced manner with different amplitudes in in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) branches, a rectangular QPSK (R-QPSK) could be synthesized. The concept of RQPSK is proposed for the first time and applied to optical eight-ary phaseshift keying (8PSK) transmitter. By cascading an S-QPSK and an R-QPSK, an optical 8PSK could be synthesized. The transmitter configuration is based on two cascaded IQ modulators, which also could be used to generate other advanced multi-level formats like quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) when different driving and bias conditions are applied. Therefore, the proposed transmitter structure has potential to be deployed as a versatile transmitter for synthesis of several different multi-level modulation formats for the future dynamic optical networks. A 30-Gb/s optical 8PSK is experimentally demonstrated using the proposed solution. © 2011 Optical Society of America.

    We propose and demonstrate a reconfigurable multilevel transmitter using a monolithically-integrated quad Mach-Zehnder inphase/quadrature (QMZ-IQ) modulator with binary driving electronics. Different from previous parallel-integrated quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) transmitter solutions, only one electrode is required to adjust the relative phase offset among embedded sub-Mach-Zehnder modulators in the proposed IQ superstructure. By feeding different RF driving electronics and operating the integrated modulator as different bias conditions, different advanced multilevel modulation formats, such as QAM and 8-ary phase-shift keying (8-PSK), could be synthesized. In this paper, a 40-Gb/s 16-QAM and a 30-Gb/s 8-PSK are generated using the proposed multilevel transmitter, respectively. Offline digital processing is employed for bit-error rates estimation and constellation reconstruction. (C)2011 Optical Society of America

    Successful transmission of live (real time) video traffic is demonstrated using a prototype 100 Gb/s single-polarization differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) transmitter and receiver over an in-service 504 km link of the LambdaXtreme® optical transport platform. Teaming with Verizon Business, we demonstrate the feasibility of upgrading an existing, live traffic bearing network to 100 Gb/s per wavelength without any changes to the current hardware or software. The 107 Gb/s signal is added at a reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer (ROADM) at a network node in Tampa, Florida, and dropped at a ROADM in Miami, Florida, where both live video and pseudorandom test sequences are received. In addition, we discuss the steps leading up to this field trial that included several important precursor laboratory experiments. We detail the generation, detection, coding, and longhaul transmission of single-polarization DQPSK at a line rate of 53.5 Gbaud to support a net information bit rate of 100 Gb/s. © 2010 Alcatel-Lucent.

Optical SSB generation with high suppression ratio of main carrier (47 dB) and undesired sidebands (&gt;42 dB) is achieved by optimizing the optical amplitude imbalances corresponding to the ER.

    Broadband optical switches are required for a wave-length division multiplexed photonic network node. The wavelength dependency of the LiNbO3 optical switch characteristics are mainly attributed to the directional coupler section.

We have optimized the structure of an asymmetric X-junction and fabricated the 1×2 LiNbO3 optical switches using it. The optical switch showed broad band characteristics compared to the switch with a directional coupler. © IEICE 2010.

    The broadband wavelength tunability of femtosecond pulse generation using a Mach-Zehnder-modulator-based flat-comb generator (MZ-FCG) and a dispersion-flattened dispersion-decreasing fiber (DF-DDF) was demonstrated. Near-Fourier-transform-limit picosecond pulses generated from the MZ-FCG were compressed into femtosecond pulses by adiabatic soliton compression. By tuning the wavelength of the input cw light, 200 fs, 10 GHz pulses were generated in the wavelength range of 1535 to 1570 nm. Such wide-range wavelength tunability was realized by both the independence of a comb-flattening condition from the inputted wavelength and the dispersion flatness of the DF-DDF.

    We propose and demonstrate an optical minimum-shift-keying (MSK) transmitter using a single-quad Mach-Zehnder (MZ) in-phase and quadrature modulator, where four sub-Mach-Zehnder modulators are monolithically integrated on a main MZ superstructure. Using the proposed transmitter, a MSK signal at bit rate of B could be successfully generated by orthogonally superposing two low-speed (B/2) carrier-suppressed return-to-zero differential phase-shift-keying streams with a relative time offset, 1/B. MSK signals at bit rate of 20 and 80 Gbits/s were successfully generated using the proposed MSK transmitter. A continuous changed phase trajectory of the obtained MSK was confirmed using a complex spectrum analyzer. The filtering tolerance of the MSK was also characterized using a bandwidth-variable tunable filter. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America

Multi-level quadrature amplitude modulation signal can be synthesized by using parallel Mach-Zehnder modulators. We can generate complicated multi-level optical signals from binary data streams, where binary modulated signals are vectorially summed in optical circuits. Frequency response of each Mach-Zehnder interferometer is also very important to achieve high-speed signals. We can enhance the bandwidth of the response, with thin substrate. 87 Gbaud modulation was demonstrated with a dual-parallel Mach- Zehnder modulator.

    Optical quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) attracts considerable attention in the enhancement of communications capacity, due to its high spectral efficiency. However, this modulation format is more sensitive to signal distortion than conventional formats, making it more difficult to create, transmit, and detect signals. In this paper, we propose an adaptive scheme for demodulation of the distorted optical signals with paying attention to use of DSP-technology. The scheme is based on the adjustment of the thresholds against the signal distortion. Successful demodulation of optical QAM signals is demonstrated with a sufficiently low bit-error rate.

    Optical quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) has attracted considerable attention because of its high spectral efficiency. For high capacity, the modulation rate should also be enhanced, which requires the generation of high-baud-rate multilevel electric signals with high precision in amplitude. In this paper, we describe a method to reduce the amplitude fluctuation of the electric signal by adopting a return-to-zero (RZ) format. We also demonstrate 2.0-Gbaud optical QAM signal generation with a conventional dual-parallel Mach-Zehnder modulator (DPMZM) driven by the electric RZ data signals.

    By combining a Mach-Zehnder-modulator-based flat comb generator (MZ-FCG) with a dispersion-flattened dispersion-decreasing fiber, femtosecond pulses have been generated from a cw light. Near-Fourier-transform-limit picosecond pulses generated from the MZ-FCG were compressed into femtosecond order by pulse compression. Our system enables flexible tuning of the repetition rate and pulse width, because those depend on the driving signal of the MZ-FCG. Pulse trains of 200 fs width were continuously and stably generated without mode hopping, with a repetition rate range from 5 to 17 GHz. Our system consists of a modulator and compression fiber; thus, the configuration is simpler and more stable. (C) 2008 Optical Society of America.

It is analytically and experimentally proved that dual-arm modulation with in-phase sinusoidal signals having slightly different amplitudes generated a highly coherent optical comb with a great spectral flatness and a parabolic phase relationship in its spectrum. The generated comb was Fourier synthesized and shaped into an ultrashort pulse train with an optical bandpass filter and a dispersive fiber. The pulse source was highly stable, exhibiting an ultralow timing jitter of less than 130 fs. © 2008 Optical Society of America.

    In optical packet switching (OPS) and optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) systems, label generation and processing are key technologies. Recently, several label processors have been proposed and demonstrated. However, in order to recognize N different labels, N separate devices are required. Here, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a large-scale, multiple optical code (OC)-label generation and processing technology based on multi-port, a fully tunable optical spectrum synthesizer (OSS) and a multi-wavelength electro-optic frequency comb generator. The OSS can generate 80 different OC-labels simultaneously and can perform 80-parallel matched filtering. We also demonstrated its application to OCDMA. © 2007 Optical Society of America.

    We theoretically prove that a conventional Mach̶Zehnder modulator can generate an optical frequency comb with excellent spectral flatness. The modulator is asymmetrically dual driven by large amplitude sinusoidal signals with different amplitudes. The driving condition to obtain spectral flatness is analytically derived and optimized, yielding a simple formula. This formula also predicts the conversion efficiency and bandwidth of the generated frequency comb. © 2007 Optical Society of America.

    A nested Mach-Zehnder (MZ) modulator, which consists of two sub MZ interferometers embedded in a main MZ interferometer, is a multifunctional modulator. It can work as an optical single side-band (SSB) modulator, a differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) modulator and so on. Despite difficulties due to their complex structure, in order to avoid the operation instability of such modulators the bias condition of each MZ interferometer must be controlled automatically according to the modulation formats. In this paper, we proposed a specific bias condition monitor technique to the nested modulator. © IEICE 2006.

  • Optoelectronic oscillator using a LiNbO3 phase modulator for self-oscillating frequency comb generation

     概要を見る

    Optical frequency comb generation by using a novel optoelectronic oscillator (OEO) is proposed and demonstrated with the emphasis placed on self-oscillating operation. In the OEO, a wideband LiNbO3 phase modulator is driven with a large-amplitude radio-frequency (RF) feedback signal to generate a deeply phase-modulated light wave
    accordingly, an optical frequency comb with a bandwidth greater than the RF signal is generated by self-oscillation. Although it generates multifrequency components, the OEO exhibits characteristics of a single-mode oscillator. Its operation is stable and self-starting. An optical frequency comb with a 120 GHz bandwidth and 9.95 GHz frequency spacing was successfully generated by self-oscillation at a single frequency. © 2006 Optical Society of America.

    We propose an optical initial phase control technique for external modulation in the format of minimum-shift keying (MSK). In this scheme, the optical phase discontinuities inherent to external frequency-shift-keying (FSK) modulation are compensated by use of an initial phase controller in conjunction with a FSK modulator. We present the principle of the control method and then numerically and experimentally prove that the signal has a modulation spectrum more compact than that of conventional binary phase-shift keying. 10-Gbit/s external modulation in MSK format was experimentally demonstrated. © 2005 Optical Society of America.

    We have realized a novel optical modulation format conversion using double-sideband suppressed-carrier modulation. An optical wideband frequency-shift-keying (FSK) signal, generated by an external FSK modulator, can be directly converted into an optical phase-shift-keying (PSK) signal, where the FSK signal having two spectral components was fed to an optical intensity modulator followed by an optical bandpass filter. Optical frequency of the FSK signal was mapped into optical phase of the bandpass filter output whose phase deviation depends on a chirp of the FSK signal. We demonstrated modulation format conversion from FSK to PSK at 10 Gbps, by using a high-speed optical FSK modulator and a dual electrode Mach-Zehnder intensity modulator. © 2005 Optical Society of America.

    We demonstrate high-speed optical frequency-shift-keying (FSK) transmission over a 95km single-mode fiber (SMF) at 10Gbit/s using a LiNbO3 optical FSK modulator and an optical interleaver. The measured eye diagrams, bit error rate (BER) performances and optical spectrum indicate the FSK modulation is similar to zero chirp non-return-to-zero (NRZ) on-off-keying (OOK) transmission. Therefore, in view of dispersion tolerance, the FSK modulation can be treated as well as NRZ OOK.

    The near fields of electromagnetic waves scattered from two-dimensional slightly rough surfaces are studied by using the stochastic functional approach. The correlation coefficient between the surface and the intensity of the scattered-wave field is investigated to estimate the fidelity of near-field intensity images. We show that the fidelity depends on both the polarization and the angle of incidence and that high fidelity can be obtained by a TM-polarized incident wave whose incident angle is not close to the critical angle of the total reflection.

  • Optimum detection for extracting maximum information from symmetric qubit sets

     概要を見る

    We demonstrate a class of optimum detection strategies for extracting the
    maximum information from sets of equiprobable real symmetric qubit states of a
    single photon. These optimum strategies have been predicted by Sasaki et al.
    [Phys. Rev. A{\bf 59}, 3325 (1999)]. The peculiar aspect is that the detections
    with at least three outputs suffice for optimum extraction of information
    regardless of the number of signal elements. The cases of ternary (or trine),
    quinary, and septenary polarization signals are studied where a standard von
    Neumann detection (a projection onto a binary orthogonal basis) fails to access
    the maximum information. Our experiments demonstrate that it is possible with
    present technologies to attain about 96% of the theoretical limit.

    極限的な精度と高速性を兼ね備える光波制御とそれを用いた革新的な光演算機能ブロックの実現を目指して、高精度光変調技術およびこれを用いた伝送システムについての基礎検討を行った。光通信システムの基本構成は光位相変調と光ファイバ、光子数を電流に変換する光検出器からなるが、各部の入出力に対して特徴的な数学的構造を有する。変調器出力に関しては、光入力は線形性をもつ一方で、変調信号入力に対してはベッセル関数で表される非線形性を有する。他方、光波進行方向に対して位相変調は加法性をもつ。本研究では上記の特徴に着目し、光変調器における光波制御精度をさらに高め、さらなる多値化や新奇機能を実現することを狙いとした。また、光変調器=ファイバ=光検出器からなる基本構成、さらにはこれを帰還ループ化することによる発振器(光電気発振器)による複雑な信号発生や信号処理の実現を目指して、基本構成の検討を行った。物理的には一つのループであっても、上記の線形性・加法性を駆使することで複数の発振器を連動させることが可能である。また、その結合関係を光領域で高度に制御することが可能となる。光電気発振器は光および電気の入出力をもつために、電子回路によるデジタル処理との親和性も高い。フォトニック信号処理は高速性・広帯域性を有するが、外乱による比較的低速の特性変動が問題となることある。本研究では、FPGAベースの制御を帰還ループに適用し、安定化制御を確保するという手法も検討するが、今年度はFPGAベースおよびアナログ演算回路と、高精度光変調技術の組み合わせによる信号処理系の構築を行った。

    本年度は,数値計算により,光時間周波数離散直交変換器の原理の確認をおこなった.本研究の第一の課題である,超高速光変調機能の実証に向け,その原理確認を行った.具体的には,超高速光変調に不可欠な,1)光直交変調,2)直交基底整形,3)時間周波数投影,の各機能を,検討する位相変調アレイ構造を用いることにより実施できることを確認した.まず,光多周波成分からなる光コム信号の発生を検討することにより,静的な動作の原理確認及び理論整備を行った.第一段階として,数値計算により,並列型光変調器を用いることにより,駆動電気信号の2倍間隔を持った光コムを生成することができ,かつその偶数時モード奇数次モードを選択的に生成できることを示した.また,変調光のペアリングにより,生成される光コム信号の持つスペクトルを平坦化できることを確認した.続いて,この原理を拡張し,駆動電気信号の4倍間隔を持った平坦光コム信号を発生できることも併せて確認した.これらの検討結果は,光時間周波数離散直交変換器の原理の裏付けとなるものである.これらの結果をまとめ,著名国際会議で成果発表を行った.また,静的動作に関する検討結果を元に,動的な動作についても検討を進め,結果等を取りまとめているところである.以上の数値計算の検討結果を元に、位相変調アレイ型の光時間周波数離散直交変換器の設計,開発に着手した.次年度以降の実験実証へとつなげていく.以下の理由により,本年度の研究計画を変更して,研究を進めてきた.基底信号生成に関する数値計算の結果,事前の簡易モデルによる予測と異なり,基底生成回路を駆動する信号に対し,より精細な信号処理を要することが判明した.この効果を見極めることが必要なため,計算モデルの変更も含め基底信号生成に関する再計算作業を追加する必要が生じた.また,当初より複雑なモデルを用いることが必要なため,光時間周波数離散直交変換の原理の数値確認には想定の検討時間追加を要した.この予定変更を行った上で,当初予定していた研究計画を実施した.予定は遅れながらも,順調に研究は進捗している.研究開発の次の段階としては,今年度の検討を踏まえた上で,位相変調アレイ型の光時間周波数離散直交変換器の設計,開発を開始する.設計に関しては,必要な光導波路仕様,電極仕様を明らかにした上で,開発を行っていく.また,光時間周波数離 散直交変換器を駆動するための光回路,マイクロ波,電子回路の準備も併せて開始する.長期的には,光時間周波数離散直交変換器・逆変換器ペアを開発し,超高速・超広帯域光変復調,信号処理が行えることを示していく

    近年、GHzを超える帯域幅を占有する超広帯域無線システムの研究開発が進んでいる。一方で、様々な用途での電波の利用は拡大し続けており、電波資源の有効利用や周波数共用が重要となり、非常に広い周波数帯域における動的な周波数測定が必要となってきている。スペクトラムアナライザなどの従来の計測器では測定に時間がかかり、レーダなどで利用が広がる周波数が高速に変化する信号などに対応することが困難であった。そこで、本研究では光変調技術を用いた高速周波数測定技術の実現を目指す。変調により生じる側波帯の比から高周波(Radio Frequency: RF)信号の周波数を直読するもので、光源や被測定信号の強度変動の影響を受けずに測定が可能である。また、並列化することで、測定精度の向上や、周波数の直接的なデジタイズなども実現できる。昨年度に引き続き、測定精度と速度の向上に関する研究を行った。測定装置の校正、評価には広帯域高速掃引光信号の生成がきわめて重要である。広帯域の周波数掃引を高速で行うと、増幅器や変調器などの各部品がもつ周波数特性を補償することが困難となるが、高速動作可能な可変減衰器を備えた光アンプを用いてその出力を光信号の段階で一定に保つ方法を開発した。光アンプは信号周波数が変動しても増幅性能が変化しないため広帯域でのレベル安定化が可能となった。検出高速化に関しては検出精度と速度の最適化のための受信装置の基本構成の検討を行った。特に単側波帯変調器(SSB)変調器の動作点安定化についての研究を進めた。光スペクトルから高周波信号の位相差が数度以下で求めることが可能となった。研究計画記載の通り、光単側波帯(Single Sideband: SSB)変調器による瞬時周波数測定(Instantaneous Frequency Measurement:IFM)に関する研究開発を実施した。測定精度・速度を評価するためには光信号および高周波信号としての広帯域周波数掃引信号を発生させる必要がある。各部品の周波数特性の影響を抑える必要があるが、高速広帯域掃引においては従来技術で対応することが困難である。例えば、既存の基準信号発生器ではマイクロ秒オーダーの掃引は不可能であった。高速掃引に適した任意波形発生装置と高次の周波数逓倍、搬送波抑圧光変調を用いることで広帯域周波数掃引が可能であることをこれまでに示していたが、周波数特性の補償が困難であった。今年度は高速応答可能な光可変減衰器を備えた光アンプで出力光レベルを一定と保つことで、周波数特性の影響を受けない信号発生を実証した。また、信号検出側ではSSB変調器の動作条件(バイアス)の高精度制御が重要であるが、光変調器の動作を非線形方程式で推定する方式を提案し、光スペクトルと高周波信号位相差の関係を数度以下で確定することに成功した。高速信号検出を実現するための光受信器の構成も検討した。これらの成果により、最終年度、瞬時周波数測定を実現するための要素技術確立が可能となることを見込んでおり、おおむね順調に進展していると考えている。測定誤差低減と測定速度向上を実現するために、変調器や光フィルタなど各部の効率的な校正方法について検討する。特に高周波信号位相差と光スペクトル、変調器の動作状態の高速評価方法を確立し、また、高速掃引信号に対応可能な光検出器、時間変動信号測定器の構成の最適化を行う。また、複数台並べることによる周波数の直接的なデジタル変換や、光出力として得られることを活用した光ネットワーク特性評価方法について研究を行い、精度向上と測定範囲の拡大を目指す。また、応用技術として、光信号のスペクトラムや周波数の高速・高精度制御についても原理の検討を行う

    本研究では一つのデバイスで複数のファイバ無線信号の一括生成を可能とする光変調技術の実現を目指している。光の往復を利用し,高速信号発生を可能とする往復逓倍変調器を利用する。往復逓倍変調器は2つの光フィルタと1つの光位相変調器から構成され,所定の無線信号周波数と入力光波長の組み合わせに対して高効率で動作する。これにより,光位相変調器部分に印加する電気信号よりも遙かに高速の成分を持つ光変調信号の発生が可能となる。これまでに400GHzを超える超高速信号発生に成功している。この往復逓倍変調器を含め,これまでの光信号発生では,複数の信号を発生させる場合には,それぞれに変調デバイスを準備する必要があり,波長多重で容量拡大する場合に,送信機が複雑になるという問題があった。これに対し,多波長成分の入力に対しては光フィルタが複数の反射帯域,透過帯域をもつものとすることで,一括信号生成が可能とする,新たな方式を検討する。各反射帯域がそれぞれ異なる反射点をもつようにすることで,波長成分ごとに異なる周波数の無線信号での変調が実現でき,非常にシンプルな構成で,各波長成分をそれぞれ別の無線信号で同時に変調することが可能となる。今年度は,数チャネルで一括信号発生可能な往復逓倍変調器の変調効率向上を図るために,光増幅機能をもった導波路構造に関する研究を進めた。エルビウムを添加することにより変調器内部での光損失を補償する原理の確認については昨年度完了しているが,今年度,往復逓倍変調器に適用し,ファイバ無線信号の発生効率の向上を達成した。さらに,複数チャネル同時変調の実証実験を行い,多数のチャネルで同時変調が可能であることを確認した

  • Parallel Mach-Zehnder modulators for quadrature amplitude modulation

    Tetsuya Kawanishi

    IEICE ELECTRONICS EXPRESS   8 ( 20 ) 1678 - 1688  2011年10月

     概要を見る

    This paper describes optical quadrature amplitude modulation techniques using parallel Mach-Zehnder modulators (MZMs). Arbitrary constellations of optical signals can be generated by using a dual-parallel MZM which can independently control real and imaginary components of lightwaves, where each MZM should be driven by multi-level electric signals. Many parallel MZMs, such as quad-parallel MZMs, octet-parallel MZMs can synthesize optical multi-level signals from binary data stream generated by electronics designed for binary modulation formats. We also investigate characterization methods of parallel MZMs. Precise measurement of half-wave voltage, extinction ratio and chirp parameter of each MZM element can be achieved by using optical spectrum analysis.

    単一のマッハチェンダー(MZ)干渉計からなる電気光学変調器を用いて2周波光およびSSB信号を発生する方法について述べ,干渉計の分岐比率の非対称性により生じる不要スペクトル成分を,各電極に印加する変調信号の振幅比を制御することにより効果的に抑圧できることを明らかする.この効果を実験的に検証するため2電極構造のMZ型電気光学変調器を用いて,実際に2周波光および光SSB信号を発生させ,変調信号の振幅を調整して不要スペクトル成分を抑圧することにより,2周波光では不要スペクトル抑圧比が49.8dB,光SSB変調では不要測波帯成分の対搬送波抑圧比が50dB以上という結果が得られた.

  • マルチフィジックスアンテナ設計技術

    2023年  

     概要を見る

    無線通信においてアンテナは必須のデバイスであり、その特性評価は回線設計のみならず、他のアプリケーションとの共存のためにも重要である。これまで無線通信に用いられてきたマイクロ波帯においてアンテナは、定常的に設置・固定されたものとして扱い、純粋な電磁気学的特性のみに着目した評価で十分であった。これは、マイクロ波帯の波長は長く(たとえば5Gで用いられている6 GHz程度であってもその波長は5 cm)、アンテナの力学的偏位が電磁気学的特性に与える影響が無視できたからである。ところが、Beyond5G/6G時代での活用が期待される100 GHz以上のテラヘルツ波帯は、その波長がマイクロ波帯と比べて一桁以上短くなることから必然的に指向性が高まり、その狭いビーム広がり角に対してアンテナの力学的偏位量が無視できない領域となる。これまで我々の研究グループでは、風雨がテラヘルツ通信にあたえる影響について報告してきたが、本研究ではマルチフィジックス問題としての基礎検討を進めた。降雨は電波の散乱や吸収を引き起こす。風はアンテナの振動を発生させる。これに加えて、降雪や温度変化の影響も考慮に入れる必要がある。このような総合的なマルチフィジックスの重要性をアンテナのみならず、光ファイバ通信へも適用し、共通したコンセプトで解析を進めるスキームを構築した。これをもとに、日独の国際共同研究の体制を整えた。

  • 高速高安定広帯域周波数掃引光源に関する研究

    2022年  

     概要を見る

    時間的に変動する干渉を含む伝送システムにおいて、本来の伝送能力を極限まで引き出すためには、広帯域周波数特性の高速測定が重要な役割を果たす。本研究では高速測定のための周波数掃引光源に関する基礎検討を行った。高精度光変調器に周波数掃引電気信号を入力すると、周波数掃引光信号が得られるが、その強度は、電気回路、光変調器の周波数特性の影響を受けて大きく変動する。この変動を可変光減衰器で調整し、一定のレベルとすることで計測用の基準信号源となる。一般に可変幅の大きな光減衰器は機械的な駆動部を有しておりその動作速度に限界がある。本研究ではナノ秒オーダーで動作する電気光学効果を用いた可変減衰器を利用した。

  • 非対称スペクトル光変調を用いた高速周波数測定

    2022年  

     概要を見る

    無線通信のさらなる高速化やレーダなどのセンシングのさらなる高性能化を目的として、帯域幅が数GHzを超えるようなシステムの開発が進められている。その中で周波数チャープ信号や周波数ホッピングなどの周波数が大幅かつ高速に変化する信号の利用が広まりつつある。本研究では2つの電気入力を持つ光変調器を用いた周波数測定技術の開発に取り組んだ。光変調器の出力光スペクトルは2つの電気入力の位相差に依存する。特に90度位相差の際に最も非対称なスペクトルになる。この非対称性を簡便な光検出器で測定し、周波数を算出するという原理である。これまでに原理確認は完了していたが、今年度、測定範囲の拡大、精度の向上を進めた。

  • テラヘルツ波のランダム表面散乱についての研究

    2021年   稲垣惠三, 吉野理玖

     概要を見る

    Beyond 5Gや6Gではさらなる高速伝送を実現するためにテラヘルツ帯・ミリ波帯の活用が積極的に検討されている。このような周波数帯では、波長が1ミリメートル以下となり、身の回りの平坦に見えるものがもつ微小な凹凸による散乱が問題となり得る。本研究では身近なものによるテラヘルツ波の散乱・反射特性を把握することを目的として、建材などを想定した表面からのテラヘルツ波散乱のモデル化と基礎実験を行った。散乱波は直接反射波に比べると微小であるので、金属による反射の影響を防ぐために、木材とプラスティックで実験装置を組み、75-110GHzの周波数帯における散乱測定を行った。理論予測と同等の散乱波の実測に成功した。

  • 高速周波数掃引による光・電波環境の瞬時測定

    2021年  

     概要を見る

    時間的に変動する干渉を含む伝送システムにおいて、本来の伝送能力を極限まで引き出すためには、広帯域周波数特性の高速測定が重要な役割を果たす。本研究では信号源の変動の影響も詳細に検討し、測定装置としての精度の技術限界を明らかにすることを目的とした。今年度は現在注目を集めているテラヘルツ・ミリ波帯において、周波数掃引信号による伝搬特性測定を行った。また、レーダーとして動作した際の基本特性を30GHz, 60GHz, 90GHzで測定し、理論通りレーダー測距性能が周波数によらず、帯域幅のみに依存することを2GHzを超える広帯域信号で確認した。

  • 高速デジタル信号処理を用いた歩行者保護のための2次レーダーシステムに関する研究

    2020年  

     概要を見る

     本研究では従来のセンシング技術の普及では対応が困難であった見通し外の対象物を検知するレーダシステムに関する研究を行う。交通弱者である歩行者を低コストで検知するシステムの実現が目標である。歩行者の存在を知らせる信号が散乱の影響を受けても識別できる必要があるため、2次レーダ方式の適用を検討している。応答装置は歩行者が携帯できる程度に簡易構造であり、かつ高速応答が可能であることが必須である。限られた電波帯域で高い検知性能の実現を目指すため、オーバーサンプリング技術に着目した。本研究では電波伝搬、レーダ信号処理のシミュレーションを実施し、その結果、2m程度の測位誤差で対象物検知の可能性が示唆された。

  • 光伝搬遅延とデータ通信需要の関係の探求

    2020年   稲垣惠三, 実野邦久

     概要を見る

     本研究の最終的な目的は、光速が有限であり、当面、人類が地球上で生活するということを前提とした場合の、シーズとしての伝送技術における低遅延化の限界を理論、実験の両面から求め、一定の遅延が不可避であるという条件下でのニーズとしての情報通信需要の上限を探ることである。フィージビリティスタディとしていくつかのユースケースを取り上げ、低遅延システムの構成を検討し、これらの優位性を実証するための実験構成を提案した。具体的には工場内のロボットなど遅延に敏感なアプリケーションのための無線・有線融合システムによる伝送システムについて、無線区間、有線区間を統合的に最適化した回線設計、干渉検討などを行った。

  • 超低遅延情報通信ネットワークの物理限界に関する研究

    2019年  

     概要を見る

    本研究の目的は、電磁波の伝搬速度が有限であり、シーズとしての伝送技術・センシング技術における低遅延化、高性能化の限界を理論、実験の両面から求めることである。レーダーなどのセンシングでは電磁波の伝搬速度を積極的に活用しているが、送受信機における信号処理遅延が性能を律速する可能性がある。今年度、歩行者保護のためのレーダーシステムの基礎研究を進め、歩行者に簡便な発振器をもたせる構成の有用性を実証した。極限まで処理遅延を押さえるための歩行者側装置を提案し、既存のミリ波レーダー等と組み合わせることで、壁の背後にいる歩行者を検知できる可能性を示した。

  • マイクロ波・ミリ波同時利用レーダー技術の研究

    2018年   菅野敦史, 稲垣惠三

     概要を見る

     本研究の目的は、見通し外の障害物を検知するためのレーダーの実現である。現在、交通事故の抑止、さらには自動運転の実現を目指して、自動車の周辺状況をセンシングするための技術開発が精力的に行われている。カメラやミリ波レーダーを用いた低コストで有効な衝突防止システムが実現しつつある。しかし、これらのすべてが見通し内の障害物に対するものであり、見通しがきかないところの状況を把握するための技術の開発例は少なく、研究開発の難易度も高い。交差点などにレーダーを設置し、見通し外の障害物を自動車などに通知するシステムの開発も進められているが、狭隘な路地すべてに複雑なシステムを整備するのは困難である。 そこで本研究では、比較的低い周波数の電波で視野外障害物を検知するとともに、現在すでに各社が開発し実用が進むミリ波レーダーやカメラによる視野内検知技術を組み合わせる方式を提案している。今年度はマイクロ波帯2次レーダーの基本原理と見通し外の障害物検知能力の確認を行った。

  • 高調波光変調によるミリ波・テラヘルツ波の高精度周波数制御と並列信号処理への応用

    2017年  

     概要を見る

    光変調器の非線形性を用いた高調波発生による周波数逓倍は低雑音であることが知られており、ミリ波、THz信号発生に適している。本研究ではこれに周波数掃引、周波数切り替えの機能を持たせることを目標とした。高調波成分の生成効率を重視した従来の手法では一定周波数が前提であったが、掃引と同期した変調器制御により、広帯域光周波数掃引信号発生を目指した。ミリ波帯レーダなどへの応用を想定して、掃引の高速性、周波数の安定度の両立を目指した基本設計を行った。また、周波数切り替えによるスペクトル制御とマルチコアファイバを組み合わせた空間的光信号処理を提案し、並列的演算システムの構成を検討した。

  • 光伝搬遅延とデータ通信需要の関係の探求

    2017年  

     概要を見る

     本研究の目的は、光速が有限であり、当面、人類が地球上で生活するということを前提とした場合の、シーズとしての伝送技術における低遅延化の限界を理論、実験の両面から求め、一定の遅延が不可避であるという条件下でのニーズとしての情報通信需要の上限を探ることである。情報伝達は光速を越えることは不可能であるので、太平洋横断光ファイバーケーブルなどの長距離伝送を介したネットワーク上ではオンラインゲームなどの即時性を要求するアプリケーションでは大きな影響を生じる。この理論上の絶対限界に近づくための光ファイバシステムの構成と、理論限界を超えるためのアプリケーション上の工夫について基礎検討を行っている。

  • 高調波光変調を用いたミリ波・テラヘルツ帯高安定広帯域掃引信号発生

    2016年  

     概要を見る

    本研究課題の目標は高精度な光変調を用いてミリ波・テラヘルツ波を生成し、その周波数を広い帯域にわたって変化させる技術の確立である。 周波数掃引信号は高精度FMCWレーダーを実現するための重要な要素技術である。中間周波数帯で精度の高い周波数掃引信号発生技術の開発し、特に、同時に発生する複数の信号の取り扱いについて詳細の検討を行った。複数のFMCWレーダー間で発生しうる干渉について検討し、掃引時間を制御することで、不要なノイズ発生を抑えることが可能であることを示した。本研究課題では中間周波数帯における原理確認を行ったが、今後はミリ波帯信号を用いた実証実験の準備に取りかかる予定である。 

  • 往復逓倍変調による広帯域周波数掃引信号発生

    2015年  

     概要を見る

     本研究課題の目標は往復逓倍変調による光領域におけるミリ波・テラヘルツ波を生成し、その周波数を広い帯域にわたって変化させる技術の確立である。 往復逓倍変調はデバイス内で有限回光を往復させることで低い周波数の入力信号から高い周波数成分の生成(逓倍)を可能とする。低位相雑音のミリ波、THz信号発生に適している。本研究ではこれに周波数掃引の機能を持たせることを目標とする。往復させるという原理のためこれまでは一定周波数が前提であったが、掃引と同期した変調器制御により、広帯域光周波数掃引信号発生を目指す。今年度は周波数可変の基本原理の検討と、他の基準信号発生方式との比較を行った。&nbsp;

  • 高精度光干渉デバイスによる通信・センシング両用技術に関する研究

    2015年

     本研究課題は、高消光比光干渉計をアクティブトリミング技術により実現し、通信用のデバイスとしての性能向上を実現するとともに動作モードを切り替えることで温度、圧力などの環境変化をモニタするためのセンシングデバイスとしての機能を持たせることを目指すものである。消光比は干渉計のバランスの高さを表す指標である。MZ干渉計を変調器として用いる際には信号発生の精度の高さを表す。センサーとして用いる場合には、感度の高さに相当する。今年度は達成可能な消光比の見積もりと、検出可能な光路変化についての基本的な関係の検討を行った。

  • 高精度光干渉デバイスによる通信・センシング両用技術に関する研究

    2015年  

     概要を見る

     本研究課題は、超高消光比光干渉計をアクティブトリミング技術により実現し、集積デバイスとしての世界最高水準の精度の達成を目標としている。アクティブトリミングは導波路型MZ干渉計(マッハツェンダー型干渉計)の各アームに強度誤差を補正するための強度トリマーを持つ集積デバイスで実現される。強度トリマー自体もMZ干渉計で構成することが可能で、この場合既存の光変調デバイス作製プロセスが利用でき、実用性が高いが、トリミング用のバイアス電圧とメインのMZ干渉計のバイアス電圧を高精度に制御することが重要である。今年度はバイアス電圧制御アルゴリズム検討に注力し、動作の安定性と精度の高さの両立に適した制御方法を見出した。
