Abstract

A 400 km standard single mode fiber (SSMF) link with a single light-intensity modulator was upgraded for simultaneous transmission of STM-16 2.5 Gbps baseband data and digital-video-broadcast-terrestrial DVBT utilizing a 40 GHz subcarrier. An optical circulator and narrowband fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) were used to separate the signals in the optical domain and allow for simple direct baseband detection of both.
