FSK modulator of optical signals

FSK MODULATOR OF OPTICAL SIGNALS

Tech for Transfer

TTO

20-12-2015

Power efficient optical links are useful for a number of applications such as high-bandwidth free-space communications. The most efficient optical links utilize large-alphabet orthogonal modulation formats such as pulse-position modulation or frequency-shift keying (FSK) modulation. This invention features an FSK modulator for optical communications and a method for large-alphabet FSK modulation. The modulator and the method are based on filtering of a multi-tone optical source such as a mode-locked laser which provides a comb distribution of tones. The filtering can be done with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer or a microring resonator. The optical signal exiting the last filter includes only a single tone which corresponds to the symbol to be transmitted.
