Abstract

See full text

A fiber optic communication system is disclosed having an optical signal source adapted to produce an amplitude and frequency modulated signal encoding binary data wherein high intensity 1 bits are red shifted relative to lower intensity 0 bits. The amplitude and frequency modulated signal is transmitted through a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), which may operate in saturation. An optical spectrum reshaper (OSR) is adapted to reshape the output of the SOA.
