Abstract :
The first transmission results using a monolithic digital optoelectronic integrated circuit (OEIC), which consists of a uni-travelling-carrier photodiode and an InP high electron mobility transistor decision circuit, are presented. High receiver sensitivity of -30.2 dBm was obtained at the bit rate of 43 Gbit/s with 150 km dispersion-shifted fibre transmission. It is confirmed that the transmission distance can be extended to over 200 km by employing forward error correction code
