Abstract :
A heterodyne-type fiber-optic television transmission is reported. The setup consists of a semiconductor transmission laser, a polarization maintaining fiber, and a heterodyne receiver with a local laser, fiber coupler, and an avalanche photodiode. Further, an interference experiment between two coherent optical channels was performed.
