The paper entitled "640 Gbaud NRZ-OOK data signal generation and 1.19 Tbit/s PDM-NRZ-OOK field trial transmission" has been accepted for oral presentation at the Postdeadline session of
OFC/NFOEC 2012 in Los Angeles, California, USA, held on March 4-8, 2012.
The paper demonstrates a field trial of a 640-Gbaud NRZ signal generated by RZ-to-NRZ conversion of a phase-coherent RZ-OTDM signal. This is employed in a 1.19-Tbit/s PDM-NRZ-OOK field transmission with BER< 3.8×10-3 for all 128 tributaries.
Hao Hu furthermore achieved the rating of best paper in his category. This is the second year Hao Hu has had a postdeadline paper accepted at OFC.
This was the third consecutive time that the High-Speed Optical Communications group had postdeadline papers accepted at OFC/NFOC.
