Abstract: A coherent passive optical network includes a downstream transceiver and first and second upstream transceivers in communication with an optical transport medium. The downstream transceiver includes a downstream processor for mapping a downstream data stream to a plurality of sub-bands, and a downstream transmitter for transmitting a downstream optical signal modulated with the plurality of sub-bands. The first upstream transceiver includes a first local oscillator (LO) for tuning a first LO center frequency to a first sub-band of the plurality of sub-bands, and a first downstream receiver for coherently detecting the downstream optical signal within the first sub-band. The second upstream transceiver includes a second downstream receiver configured for coherently detecting the downstream optical signal within a second sub-band of the plurality of sub-bands. The downstream processor dynamically allocates the first and second sub-bands to the first and second transceivers in the time and frequency domains.

Abstract: A communications network includes a central communication unit, an optical transport medium, and a plurality of remote radio base stations. The central communication unit generates, within a selected millimeter-wave frequency band, a plurality of adjacent two-tone optical frequency conjugate pairs. Each conjugate pair includes a first optical tone carrying a modulated data signal, and a second optical tone carrying a reference local oscillator signal. The optical transport medium transports the plurality of two-tone conjugate pairs to the plurality of radio base stations, and each base station receives at least one conjugate pair at an optical front end thereof. The optical front end separates the first optical tone from the second optical tone, and converts the first optical tone into a millimeter-wave radio frequency electrical signal. The base station further includes a radio antenna system for wirelessly transmitting the millimeter-wave radio frequency electrical signal to at least one wireless receiving device.

Abstract: An injection locking laser source is provided for an optical communications system. The injection locking laser source includes a laser cavity configured to receive an externally injected low linewidth primary light source. The laser cavity includes a cavity length, a cavity facet reflectivity, and a cavity quality factor. The injection locking laser source further includes an emitting region configured to output a secondary light source injection locked to the externally injected low linewidth primary light source at a stable detuning frequency based on a photon number, a steady-state phase, and a carrier number of the primary light source injected into the cavity.

Abstract: Multi-access gateways with intelligent convergence (MAGIC gateways) for use on client premises intelligently distribute user equipment network traffic to/from a plurality of Internet service providers (ISPs), without any change on the ISP network side. Use of a MAGIC gateway improves network reliability by providing redundancy and distributing traffic to those ISPs that provide the best service parameters for the type of traffic being transmitted.
