Measuring clock jitter and data signals for bit error detection in optical transceiver systems

This work demonstrates how to measure jitter using the eye diagram Analyzer histogram feature. Bit sequence generator is employed with the NRZ Pulse generator with the electrical jitter in order to measure the signal amplitude level. We have modulated the light signal from CW Laser with the electrical signal by Mach-Zehnder Modulator through 5 km fiber cables. The signal can be amplified with a gain of 7 dB with the presence of transimpedence amplifier. The combination of electrical signal and signal from noise source can be filtered by using the low pass Gaussian filter.
