Abstract

See full text

A method and system for suppression of the optical carrier of an optically modulated digital signal, the method comprising the steps of: modulating the amplitude of an optical carrier with digital input data to generate an amplitude modulated optical signal; and modulating the frequency of the optical carrier of the resulting optical signal with the same digital input data. A fiber optic system comprising: an optical source adapted to produce an adiabatically chirped amplitude modulated optical signal; an optical fiber adapted to receive the optical signal; and an optical receiver; wherein the optical power of the signal launched into the fiber exceeds the stimulated Brillouin threshold of the transmission fiber for a single frequency, continuous wave signal.
