Abstract

We proposed a variable linewidth light source using random walk phase noise. As a demonstration, the impact of the laser linewidth on the error-vector magnitude performance in the optical QPSK transmission was evaluated by using the proposed laser source experimentally, where the linewidth tunable range was from 40 kHz to 5 MHz.
