Abstract In the present work, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is combined with wavelength division multiplexing-passive optical networks (WDMPONs) to obtain the combined benefits of both technologies for overall system improvement. performance of five OFDM signals using WDM is analyzed. An optical system is designed using the OFDM signal, and its performance is analyzed using various matrices like bit error rate (BER) and Q-factor under the effect of varying laser power. Mapping of OFDM signals is done using 16-QAM modulation. The system shows an enhancement in the performance by increasing the laser power but up to some limit, and efficient results are obtained in the 70–130 mW laser power range.

AbstractIn this work, a maintenance issues resolved suppression method of four-wave mixing (FWM) is proposed using optical phase conjugation (OPC) modules and different placements of OPCs are investigated in ultradense wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system with coherent orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) incorporation. Moreover, comparison of the placements of OPC in six different cases has been done and compared with conventional WDM (no-OPC) system in terms of Q-factor, BER and induced FWM. Analysis has been done at different launched power levels. It is observed that placement of OPC after each laser source performs exceptionally well and suppresses FWM with ease of maintenance.

Abstract The main drawback in the performance of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is the higher Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the OFDM signals at the transmitter side. Companding is a well-known technique useful for reducing PAPR in the OFDM signal. This paper proposes a new nonlinear companding scheme that transforms the magnitude of Rayleigh distributed OFDM signal of specific degree into trapezoidal distribution. Additional design parameter is used in the proposed companding scheme to make the companding function more flexible. In the designed OFDM system the companding function has more degree of freedom which improves the PAPR and bit error rate (BER) parameters of the designed system. It has been demonstrated that the designed companding scheme provides more flexibility to accomplish an optimum trade-off between the performance parameters PAPR and BER of the designed OFDM system.
