Abstract

Experimental study of channel crosstalk effects in time-switched phase diversity optical homodyne reception is presented, precisely focused towards ultra-dense wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) passive optical networks (PON). This receiver achieves ultra-low channel spacing and feasible implementation.
