摘要

In the gigabit-capable passive optical network (GPON) optical communication system, the selection of fiber and system performance-analysis is the key links for the realization of system function. Especially the characteristic budget and parameter setting of downlink receiver are topped the list. The analysis of receiver power penalty can reduce the influence on receiver sensitivity and bit error rate (BER) that caused by waveguide dispersion and pulse widening. This article will simulate the performance of GPON downlink receiver, then analyze typical characteristics such as Four Wave Mixing (FWM), Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA), system eye pattern and Q factor and so on, so as to validate the feasibility of the optical downlink.
