Study on the Methods for Generating Optical PAM-4 Signal With the Standard Silicon Mach–Zehnder Optical Modulator

We propose an analytical model to evaluate three different methods for generating the optical four-level pulse-amplitude-modulation (PAM-4) signal with a standard silicon Mach–Zehnder (M–Z) optical modulator. With this model, we further use the uniformity of the modulation inte...
