Performance analysis of optical heterodyne PSK receivers in the presence of phase noise and adjacent channel interference

A phase-shift-keying (PSK) optical heterodyne receiver using synchronous detection by means of a Costas phase-locked loop (PLL) is investigated. Taking into account the laser phase noise and adjacent channel interference (ACI), an expression of the phase error variance is derived and error probability calculation is performed. Plots of the error probability versus the number of photons per bit are presented as a function of the optical domain channel spacing (D) and for several linewidth-to-bit-rate ratios ( delta f/R/sub b/). Relative sensitivity penalties, based on the performance with and without ACI, are evaluated for several combinations of D and delta f/R/sub b/. It is shown that, if lasers with larger linewidths are used, the frequency separation between optical carriers has to be increased in order to allow the same relative sensitivity penalty. >
