Partial-response maximum likelihood receiver for long-reach 10 Gb/s RSOA-based WDM-PON transmission

We demonstrate 10 Gb/s WDM-PON system using 1.2 GHz RSOA over 150 km distance. The proposed receiver based on partial-response maximum-likelihood equalizer is proven to have superior performance than conventional equalizers in long-reach transmission.
