@article{Mohd Ridzuan_Othman_Jaafar_Abdullah_2017, title={Comparison of Cap and QAM-DMT Modulation Format for In-Home Network Environment}, volume={9}, url={https://jtec.utem.edu.my/jtec/article/view/2802}, abstractNote={Carrierless amplitude phase (CAP) modulation format has appeared as a potential advanced modulation format candidate for spectrally efficient single-carrier modulation type due to less complexity and has competitive performance. In this paper, the comparison between 2D-CAP-4 and 4-QAM-DMT modulation format over 3 km single mode fiber (SMF) transmission link using 1310 nm vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) has been performed for inhome network environment. The net bit rates of 625 Mb/s and 454.6 Mb/s are achieved for 2D-CAP-4 and 4-QAM-DMT, respectively. Spectral efficiencies of 1.89 b/s/Hz for 2D-CAP-4 and 1.43 b/s/Hz for 4-QAM-DMT are reported. It is observed that 2D-CAP-4 outperforms 4-QAM-DMT with 1.14 dB better receiver sensitivity. These results indicate that the privilege properties of CAP modulation format can be an attractive prospect for in-home network environment.}, number={3-2}, journal={Journal of Telecommunication, Electronic and Computer Engineering (JTEC)}, author={Mohd Ridzuan, Noridah and Othman, Maisara and Jaafar, Marliana and Abdullah, Mohammad Faiz Liew}, year={2017}, month={Oct.}, pages={1–4} }
