Soliton and Radio over Fiber (RoF) Applications

A system of microring resonators (MRRs) connected to an optical modified add/drop filter system is used. The optical soliton pulse of 60 GHz frequency band can be generated and used for millimeter waves in radio over fiber (ROF) applications. Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) as IEEE 802.15.3c is one of the applications for the ROF. The system uses chaotic signals generated by a Gaussian laser pulse propagating within a nonlinear MRRs system. The chaotic signals can be generated via a series of MRRs. The IEEE 802.15.3c standard operates at the 60 GHz frequency band, and it is applicable for a short distance optical communication such as indoor systems, where the higher transmission data rate can be performed using a high frequency band of the output optical soliton pulses.
