摘要

Abstract

Common-signal-induced synchronization of semiconductor lasers have promising applications in physical-layer secure transmission with high speed and compatibility with the current fiber communication. Here

we propose an ultra-long-distance laser synchronization scheme by utilizing random digital optical communication signal as the common drive signal. By utilizing the long-haul optical coherent communication techniques

high-fidelity fiber transmission of the digital drive can be achieved and thus ultra-long-distance synchronization is expected. Experiments were implemented with distributed feedback lasers injected by a random-digital phase-modulated drive light. Results show that high-quality synchronization can be achieved as the drive signal rate is larger than the laser relaxation frequency and the transmission bit error ratio is below a critical value. Chaos synchronization over 8191-km fiber transmission was experimentally achieved. Compared to traditional common-signal-induced synchronization using analog drive signal such as chaos

the distance is increased by 8 times

and complicated hardware devices for channel impairment compensation are no longer required. In addition

the proposed method does not sacrifice communication capacity like traditional methods which need a channel to transmit analog drive signal. It is therefore believed that this common-digital-signal induced laser synchronization paves a way for secure backbone and submarine transmission.
