This paper introduces the concept of a symmetric 10 Gbit/s high power-budget TDM-PON based on digital coherent technology and confirms its feasibility through a bidirectional transmission experiment with a transmission distance of 40 km and power budget of more than 50 dB. Burst-mode upstream 10 Gbit/s binary-phase-shift-keying (BPSK) signals synchronized by the clock recovered from downstream 10 Gbit/s NRZ signals are detected by using an optical pre-amplifier and coherent detection based on real-time burst-mode digital signal processing (DSP) in the optical line terminal (OLT). The real-time DSP implements coefficient handover in the adaptive equalizer to allow the reception of burst-mode upstream BPSK signals with short preamble length. An experimental bit error performance evaluation of the real-time burst-mode DSP yields the receiver sensitivity of -45.1 dBm for upstream burst-mode BPSK with a preamble length of 1.3 μs. For downstream signals, the receiver sensitivity of -38.9 dBm is achieved by using a chirp-controlled transmitter with optical post-amplifier so as to avoid the signal distortion created by the chromatic dispersion of single mode fiber (SMF) when the launched power is increased.
