  • Abstract
    A random access optical heterodyne receiver for a coherent FDM broadcasting system has been developed, using a wavelength tunable local DBR LD, polarisation diversity technique and a random access automatic frequency controller. In a 10-channel FDM experimental system, 114 GHz capture range, 80 GHz lock range and arbitrary channel selection within less than 1 ms were realised.
