This article presents the first results of the timing-jitter characterization of a VCSEL-based optoelectronic oscillator (VBO) at 2,5GHz. For all implementations, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSEL) emitting in the O and C-bands were characterized. The resonant cavity was modified through the optical delay line length to verify its impact on timing-jitter and phase noise of the VBO. The lowest peak-to-peak jitter value obtained experimentally was 71 mUI when the optical fiber length was 1 km, whereas the lowest phase noise was -124 dBc/Hz with 5 km. This phase noise value, measured at 10 kHz offset, represents an 8 dB improvement compared to previous results, and it is the lowest value reported in the literature for the VBO architecture at 2,5GHz.
Este artículo presenta los primeros resultados de la caracterización de la fluctuación de fase (jitter) de un oscilador optoelectrónico basado en VCSEL (VBO) a 2,5 GHz. Para todas las implementaciones, se caracterizaron l ́aseres de emisión superficial con cavidad vertical (VCSEL) que emiten en las bandas O y C. La cavidad resonante se modificó a través de la longitud de la línea de retardo óptico para verificar su impacto en la fluctuación temporal y el ruido de fase del VBO. El valor de jitter pico a pico más bajo obtenido experimentalmente fue 71 mUI cuando la longitud de la fibra óptica era de 1 km, mientras que el ruido de fase más bajo fue -124dBc/Hz con 5 km. Este valor de ruido de fase, medido a 10 kHz de la portadora principal, representa un mejoramiento de 8 dB con respecto a resultados previos y es el valor m ́as bajo registrado en la literatura para la arquitectura VBO a 2,5 GHz.
