Cost-effective WDM-PON Delivering Up/Downstream Data and Broadcast Services on a Single Wavelength Using Mutually Injected FPLDs

We propose and demonstrate a cost-effective wavelength-division-multiplexed passive optical network which can provide 155-Mb/s up/downstream data and broadcast signals on a single wavelength using bidirectional transmission and mutually injected Fabry-Perot laser diodes.
