Abstract
In this paper, a bidirectional 40/40Gbps time and wavelength division multiplexing-passive optical network (TWDM-PON)
system employing 4-level quadrature amplitude modulation (4-QAM) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)
modulation is proposed and analysed to ulfil the high bandwidth demand of next-generation access networks. The system
has been analysed for variable distance, data rate and input power. The results show that the bidirectional 40/40 Gbps
traffic can be transmitted successfully up to 200 km with an optimum input power of 16 dBm at 3.8×10-3
bit error rate (BER)
using digital signal processing (DSP) unit. Also, the proposed system shows its superiority as compared to previous work.
