CS-SSB –
Modulation technique allowing positive or negative shifting of the optical carrier frequency.
DP-QPSK; Dual Polarization Quadrature Phase Shift Keying
Method for encoding digital signals on an optical carrier based on modulation in the complex phase and amplitude plane.
Mach-Zehnder interferometer
Two-wave interferometer involving two separate optical paths obtained using light splitting plates and reflection mirrors. The Mach-Zehnder modulator is the integrated optical version of this setup.
Sagnac interferometer
A two-wave interferometer in the form of a loop, obtained using beam splitters and reflecting mirrors, in which the two waves follow identical paths but in opposite directions. This architecture...
