This technique uses the effect of chromatic dispersion in single mode fibers, expressed by the Schrodinger equation. After duplicating the input pulse signal, the interference of two replica, that are unequally dispersed, results in a second order derivate of the input signal and therefore in an UWB pulse carried by an optical wave. Gaussian doublet like signals can easily be generated. This enables providing several gigahertz bandwidths for applications in high-bit-rate UWB wireless communications. New experimental schemes are given as a proof for our new approach. This new method allows not only generating UWB pulses but also distributing them over optical fibers with a low integration cost. © 2007 IEEE.enPermission to reuse abstract has been secured from Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.Broadband networksChannel capacityCommunication channels (information theory)FibersFrequency shift keyingOptical fibersOptical materialsPermanent magnetsPulse generatorsSchrodinger equationSignal processingSingle mode fibersTelecommunication systemsFrequency shift-keying (FSK) modulationGroup-velocity dispersion (GVD)Intensity modulation (IM)Phase-modulation (PM)Ultra wideband (UWB)ModulationConference PaperCopyright : 2007 IEEE.
