Abstract

An experimental setup of back-to-back 10kbps data transmission based on MSAC technique over fiber optic link with intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) scheme is demonstrated for the first time. The signal waveform and signal spectrum from MSAC generator is observed. Signal spectrum observation shows that the first transition clock is at 3.33kHz. For optical MSAC signal transmission, the performance of the system is characterized by Q-factor of eye diagram at 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 dB optical power attenuation. It is found that to achieve Q-factor of 6 or better for all small eyes, optical signal attenuation must be less than 8 dB.
