Abstract
Improving the signal to noise ratio in an optical link involves either reducing the noise or increasing the RF power coupled into the optical link by lowing the voltage, Vπ, required to induce a phase change of π of the optical beam passing through the optical modulator. The present disclosure relates to methods and architectures for increasing the optical power through a link through providing one or more laser sources, additional modulators or photodiode receivers and dividing the optical power through these components so that none are overloaded.
