Abstract
The frequency response of multimode optical fibre (MMF) shows the existence of passbands in the higher frequency region beyond the -3dB baseband cut-off frequency. By Subcarrier Multiplexing, these passbands can be used to accommodate a number of transmission channels, each for a different service. In this way various groups of services may be integrated in a single MMF-based in-building or short-reach access network infrastructure. In this paper, we demonstrate the transmission of a single 1.25 Gb/s binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulated data stream over 100 m length 50µm-core-diameter graded-index perfluorinated polymer optical fibre (GIPOF) by using a single subcarrier channel centered at 3 GHz. Error free transmission was observed. Eye diagram and bit error rate measurement results are presented. Since the frequency response of this POF is relatively flat over a wide range, it is possible to use additional subcarrier channels with each channel carrying Gigabit Ethernet or other services.
