Abstract

A practical implementation of coherent wavelength division multiplexing (CoWDM) is demonstrated for the first time using injection-locked lasers and a DPSK modulator array. For a 31.99Gbit/s system (three subcarriers at 10.664Gbit/s) the null-to-null spectral bandwidth was only 42.656GHz and the average receiver sensitivity measured was -33.5dBm when all subcarrier phases were optimised.
