WDM PON Receivers Enhanced by Integrated SOAs

The use of multi quantum-well SOAs integrated in a PON receiver including fabrication and loss constraints is modelled, analysed and experimentally validated. Performances were evaluated for a $32 \times25 Gb/{s}$ OOK WDM transmission system in different operating conditions.
