ABSTRACT:
There is provided a fiber optic transmission system, comprising:an optical signal source adapted to produce a frequency modulated signal; anda multi-ring resonator optical spectrum reshaper (OSR) adapted to convert the frequency modulated signal into a substantially amplitude modulated signal.And there is provided a method for transmitting an optical signal through a fiber comprising:producing a frequency modulated signal;passing the frequency modulated signal through a multi-ring resonator optical spectrum reshaper (OSR) so as to convert the frequency modulated signal into a substantially amplitude modulated signal; andpassing the substantially amplitude modulated signal into the fiber.
