Experiments on 10Gb/s Fast Settling High Sensitivity Burst-Mode Reciever with On-Chip Auto-Reset for 10G-GPONs

This paper reports performance tests on a DC-coupled 10Gb/s burst-mode receiver with on-chip reset, designed for 10G-GPONs. Record short 2R settling time, high sensitivity and large loud/soft ratio is demonstrated in burst-mode operations at 2.5G/5G/10Gb/s. © 2011 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (060.2360) Fiber optics links and subsystems; (060.0060) Fiber optics and optical communications
