A predistortion circuit design technique for high performance analogue optical transmission
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In radio over fiber systems, a highly linear optical transmitter is necessary to achieve the required signal dynamic range. In order to compensate for second and third order laser distortions, quadratic and cubic law circuits are usually required to work at up to 2 or 3 times the carrier frequency due to their nonlinear property. This paper presents an alternative design approach that uses multiple tank circuits to relieve the bandwidth requirement at the same time providing tunability to account for component variation, thermal effect and aging of semiconductor lasers. A laser pre-distorter example that works at 2 GHz range with about 300 MHz bandwidth was designed using standard CMOS technology. The average reductions of 20-30 dB for the 2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">nd</sup> and 3 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">rd</sup> order harmonic distortion can be obtained in simulation.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
