Measurement of direct modulated lasers frequency-drift in burst-mode and impact on narrowly filtered receivers

The frequency-drift under burst-mode operation is evaluated. A fast drift at start of burst is found that has inverted sign compared to thermal drift. The impact on narrowly filtered receivers is studied by BER measurements.
