    Photonic-Lantern Coherent LIDAR System
    (Optical Soc Amer, 2015) Ozdur, Ibrahim; Toliver, Paul; Woodward, T. K.
    In this work, a photonic-lantern-based coherent LIDAR system is experimentally demonstrated and the voltage signal-to-noise ratio improvement is analyzed. A voltage signal-to-noise ratio (SNRV) improvement of 2.8 is demonstrated experimentally for photonic-lantern-based coherent receivers relative to single-mode coherent receivers. The voltage signal-to-noise ratio improvement is obtained when other parameters are kept constant. We have also analyzed the effect of random optical power distribution among the single-mode fibers. We found that the distribution does not significantly impact the SNRV improvement. The mean value of voltage signal-to-noise ratio improvement is found to be similar to 2.4.

    Performance Improvements of Photonic Lantern Based Coherent Receivers
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014) Ozdur, Ibrahim T.; Toliver, Paul; Woodward, Ted K.
    In this work, the signal-to-noise ratio improvement of photonic lantern-based coherent receivers over single-mode coherent receivers is demonstrated. The signal-to-noise ratio is improved by a factor of 2.8 when other parameters kept constant. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
