Abstract
For low cost fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) passive optical networks (PON), we have studied the delivery of broadcast digital video as an overlay to baseband switched digital services on the same fiber using a single transmitter and a single receiver. We have multiplexed the baseband data at 155.52 Mbps with digital video QPSK channels in the 270 - 1450 MHz range with minimal degradation. We used an additional 860 MHz carrier modulated with 8 Mbps QPSK as a test-signal. An optical to electrical (O/E) receiver using an APD satisfies the power budget needs of ITU-T document G983.x for both class B and C operations (i.e., receiver sensitivity less than -33 dBm for a 10-10 bit error rate) without any FEC for both data and video. The PIN diode O/E receiver nearly satisfies the need for class B operation (-30 dBm receiver sensitivity) of G983 with FEC in QPSK FDM video. For a 155.52 Mbps baseband data transmission and for a given bit error rate, there is approximately 6 dBo1 optical power penalty due to video overlay. Of this, 1 dBo penalty is due to biasing the laser with an extinction ratio reduced from 10 dBo to approximately 6 dBo, and approximately 5 dBo penalty is due to receiver bandwidth increasing from approximately 100 MHz to approximately 1 GHz. The penalty due to receiver is after optimizing the filter for baseband data, and is caused by the reduced value of feedback resistor of the first stage transimpedance amplifier. The optical power penalty for video transmission is about 2 dBo due to reduced optical modulation index.
