We investigate the performance of optical equalization of GDR-induced penalties from chirped fiber Bragg gratings (CFBGs) in 112 Gbit/s metro networks using FIR filters. The GDR-induced mean OSNR penalties are reduced to <0.2 dB.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
