10.7 Gb/s electronic predistortion transmitter using commercial FPGAs and D/A converters implementing real-time DSP for chromatic dispersion and SPM compensation
This paper in collaboration with Ericsson, Germany, cited 24 times (GoogleScholar) was the first to demonstrate FPGA-based real-time digital signal processing for overcoming non-linear impairments in fibre transmission. Also established a new experimental technique, now widely used in the field, for generation of novel modulation formats and transmitter based digital signal processing in optical communications. Transmitters based on this scheme are commercially available from Micram (www.micram.com/index.php/products/vega?start=1) and Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (www.hhi.fraunhofer.de/fields-of-competence/photonic-networks-and-systems/products-and-services/optical-multi-format-transmitter.html). Ericsson purchased FPGA firmware used in this paper from UCL (ref Cornelius Fürst).
