Demonstration of upstream flexible 2-/4-PAM formats for practical PON deployments

Adaptive 2-/4-PAM modulation in PONs leverages the distribution of optical path losses to increase capacity. Upstream 2-/4-PAM burst transmission is demonstrated with a selectable fixed 4-tap FIR-filter, improving the performance of each gain mode of the burst-mode receiver
