System impacts of modulation technology and phase noise on coherent analog optical links

System impacts of modulation technology and phase noise on coherent analog optical links

We describe an analog optical link using amplitude modulation and coherent detection for high SFDR, gain, and low noise figure. We then address the dominant performance-limiting parameters and discuss several approaches to overcome these limitations.
