Full Field

Phase-retrieval (PR) schemes based on the modified Gerchberg-Saxton (GS) algorithm capture the full-field employing a dispersive element and intensity-only measurements to eliminate the use of a local oscillator. In this work, we propose two carrier-assisted PR schemes, namely central carrier-assisted PR (CCA-PR) and edge carrier-assisted PR (ECA-PR), to improve the comprehensive performance of PR receiver in terms of convergence speed, redundancy, and computational complexity. The proposed CCA-PR recovers the electrical field employing a reference carrier at 0 GHz with several iterations between two projection planes. It avoids pilot symbols and digital backpropagation to the transmitter and offers a flexible electrical bandwidth requirement compared with conventional PR schemes. To lower the carrier-to-signal power ratio (CSPR) requirement and enable faster convergence for the carrier-assisted PR schemes, the ECA-PR is proposed to obtain the initial phase for the GS algorithm. We numerically characterize the performance of the two schemes and experimentally demonstrate them for 30 GBaud 16-quadrature amplitude modulation (16-QAM) transmission over 80 km single-mode fiber with a bit error rate (BER) below the threshold of 7% hard-decision forward error correction (HD-FEC). Several critical parameters are analyzed, including the applied dispersion value, CSPR, and electrical bandwidth. Moreover, we compare the hardware complexity and optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) sensitivity of proposed PR schemes with mainstream field recovery schemes.

Command Shaping

Traditionally, multi-mode command-shaping controllers are tuned to the system frequencies. This work suggests an opposite approach. A frequency-modulation (FM) strategy is developed to tune the system frequencies to match the frequencies eliminated by a single-mode command-shaper. The shaper developed in this work is based on a double-step command-shaping strategy. Using the FM Shaper, a simulated feedback system is used to modulate the closed-loop frequencies of a simulated double-pendulum model to the point where the closed-loop second mode frequency becomes an odd multiple of the closed-loop first mode frequency, which is the necessary condition for a satisfactory performance of a single-mode command-shaper. The double-step command-shaper is based on the closed-loop first mode frequency. The input commands to the plant of the simulated closed-loop system are then used to drive the actual double-pendulum. Performance is validated experimentally on a scaled model of a double-pendulum gantry crane.

Input Shaper

Traditionally, multimode input shaping controllers are tuned to systems' frequencies. This work suggests an alternative approach. A frequency-modulation (FM) input shaping technique is developed to tune the resonant frequencies of a system to a set of frequencies that can be eliminated by a single-mode primary input shaper. Most of the current input shaping techniques can be used as primary input shapers for the FM input shaping technique. Virtual feedback is used to modulate the closed-loop frequencies of a simulated double-pendulum model of an overhead crane to the point where the closed-loop second mode frequency becomes an odd-multiple of the closed-loop first mode frequency, which is the necessary condition for a satisfactory performance of most single-mode input shapers. The primary input shaper is based on the first mode frequency of the closed-loop system model. The input commands to the plant of the virtual feedback system are then used to drive the physical double-pendulum. Simulations results, using primary zero-vibration (ZV) and zero-vibration-derivative (ZVD) input shapers, are presented. The performance is validated experimentally on a scaled model of a double-pendulum overhead crane.
