Abstract
We present the design and performance validation of jitter and peak-to-peak
variation optimal rate multipliers based on finite-impulse-response optical
interferometers. To this end, we show that uniform impulse response interferometers
yield minimum jitter and peak-to-peak variation for most practical cases.
We also discuss the realization of optimal interferometers with sampled fiber
Bragg gratings (FBGs), and show by means of numerical simulations that the
jitter and peak-to-peak variation performance of the designed FBGs is in close
agreement with the theory.
