In the recent years, the optical networks have grown to unexpected dimensions. The growth of active users and growing demand for data services set high requirements to network providers. Driving forces of this growth are multimedia, cloud computing and web services which set high bandwith demand. The majority of currently deployed optical networks utilize passive or active network structure using dominantly singlemode optical fiber (SMF). SMF is believed to be the better choice over multimode optical fiber (MMF) for high speed optical fiber communication systems. And in some applications it definitely is. MMF has found use especially for short distance communication as it easily supports distances required for interconnecting building, data centres or campuses. In this paper we present a simulation model of 1000BASE-LX Ethernet with MMF using different optical modulation techniques. The aim of this article is to demonstrate possibilities of MMF based 1000BASE-LX Ethernet with directly modulated vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL).

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a modulation technique which is now used in most new and emerging broadband wired and wireless communication systems such as standard 802.11a/b/g/n, Digital Video Broad casting Television (DVB-TV), and Long Term Evolution (LTE) in the next mobile generation, due to its capacity in solving the problems of Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI) caused by the effects of the dispersive channel. Very recently researches focus on applying OFDM technology in optical fiber communication systems. Optical OFDM is well suited for high speed transmission systems with high spectral efficiency and attracted significant attention from the optical communication community. One of the major issues that degrade the performance of optical OFDM networks is its fiber non-linearity. Fiber non-linearities represent the fundamental limiting mechanisms to the amount of data that can be transmitted on a single optical fiber. Non-linear effects arise as optical fiber data rates, transmission lengths, number of wavelengths, and optical power level increases. Therefore, the effect of non-linearity in high data rate optical networks needs to be controlled to enhance link performances. In this paper, a nonlinearity compensation technique (Hermitian Symmetry) is implemented to improve the performance of OFDM based optical networks. This would provide high spectral efficiency, low ISI and very good Bit Error Rate (BER) performances without increasing the complexity of the network. The optical OFDM transmission system with fiber non-linearity compensation is simulated using Virtual Photonics Integrated (VPI) software.

This chapter deals with coded modulation and impairment compensation techniques in optical fiber communication. Probabilistic shaping is a new coded modulation technology, which can reduce transmission power by precoding, reduce bit error rate and improve communication rate. We proposed a probabilistic shaping 16QAM modulation scheme based on trellis coded modulation. Experimental results show that this scheme can achieve better optical SNR gain and BER performance. On the other hand, in order to meet the demand of transmission rate of next generation high speed optical communication systems, multi-dimensional modulation and coherent detection are sufficiently applied. The imperfect characteristics of optoelectronic devices and fiber link bring serious impairments to the high baud-rate and high order modulation format signal, causes of performance impairment are analyzed, pre-compensation and receiver side’s DSP techniques designed for coherent systems are introduced.
