Abstract

See full text

An optical transmitter includes a light source and an SBS suppression circuit coupled to the light source. The light source is operable to generate an optical signal having one or more wavelengths. The optical signal has a signal spectrum having an upper band limit and a lower band limit. The SBS suppression circuit is operable to communicate a noise current for receipt by the light source. The noise current is operable to broaden the signal spectrum of the optical signal. The light source operates to convert the noise current into a noise component of the signal spectrum that resides between the upper band limit and the lower band limit.
