Abstract

Stokes-vector modulation (SVM) formats have recently drawn attention for realizing low-cost and high-capacity optical transceivers. However, SVM transmitters reported so far are still complicated because they are based on optical components employed mainly in coherent systems. In order to reduce the device size, cost and power consumption, a more compact transmitter configuration is desired. In this invited paper, we first experimentally demonstrate transmission of 30-Gb/s 8-ary SVM signal over 50 km using the proposed configuration. Then we numerically investigate system performance of our recently-proposed compact transmitter for the 8-ary SVM format.
