Title :
Sensitivity to phase errors of fourier transforms using arrayed waveguide grating routers for optical OFDM
Author_Institution :
Dept. of Electr. & Comput. Syst. Eng., Monash Univ., Clayton, VIC, Australia
Abstract :
Simulations of a four-channel AWGR FFT show the mean signal quality is the inverse of the phase variance of the arrayed waveguides. The phase error should <; 15° for an 84% device yield.
