Suppressing SBS Through Chaotic Phase Modulation Rafael G. Setra, Thomas E. Murphy, and Rajarshi Roy University of Maryland, College Park
Introduction to SBS Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is a nonlinear interaction between optical and acoustical waves 2 Waves in SBS.
Significance of SBS Limits transmitted power through fiber optic systems An existing suppression method is phase modulation We look at the possibility of chaotic phase modulation 3 Phase modulation setup.Actual setup.
Experimental Output Power 4 Output power due to various modulations.
Simulation Comparison 5 Output power due to no modulation.
Simulation Prediction 6
Conclusions Chaotic phase modulation is effective in SBS suppression. Developed simulation that accurately predicts SBS threshold. Chaotic modulation is comparable to sine modulation. 7
Future Work Recover the original signal through a demodulation
