Abstract, An optical communication system includes an optical transmitter for transmitting a subcarrier multiplexed optical signal through a single mode optical fiber to an optical receiver. The optical transmitter includes an optical source for generating a light beam. The optical source is preferably a high speed laser diode emitting in a spectral range of 1.3-1.6 micrometers. The light beam is intensity modulated with a composite modulation signal comprising multiple modulated microwave carriers. Each of the microwave carriers intensity modulates the light beam with a modulation index mi to provide the optical signal for transmission. The total modulation index M defined, by M = .SIGMA. …

Why it's free to use
- Granted November 3, 1992. A Canadian patent filed before October 1, 1989 lasted 17 years from grant, so its term ended November 3, 2009.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
