Real-time 10Gbps Polarization Independent Quasicoherent Receiver for NG-PON2 Access Networks

A real-time 10Gbps polarization independent quasicoherent receiver for NG-PON2 access networks is proposed and experimentally validated. The sensitivity of this receiver is −33dBm and making feasible a 35dB power budget (required for E2 class).
