Abstract :
This letter demonstrates fiber chromatic dispersion compensation for optical homodyne detection systems, using a VSB filtered optical PSK signal. An optical PSK signal suitable for SSB and VSB filtering is newly employed. A 10-Gb/s optical PSK-VSB signal is transmitted with an optical carrier through 126 km conventional single-mode fiber. Penalty-free transmission is achieved by fiber chromatic dispersion compensation in the baseband with a 10-cm microstrip line.<>
