Four-wave mixing growth in wavelength-division multiplexing solitons systems near the zero-dispersion wavelength

Full model analysis of the four-wave mixing anti-STOKES component growth in the wavelength-division multiplexing solitons systems near the zero-dispersion wavelength

“…Their approach consisted to launch two continuous waves (CW) that interact together leading to the FWM occurrence in the system. Nowadays, it is well-known that the FWM creates deleterious effects on WDM and dense WDM communication systems [2,[4][5][6][7][8]. Many technics were previously investigated in order to reduce or to quite cancel these effects such as dispersion management technic, an experimental grouping wavelength method, the use of weak random dispersion in second term of dispersion and recently in frequency-division multiplexing systems [5].…”

The study of effects of higher-order dispersion terms on the FWM of the first type has been done by Singh et al [8].…”

“…As far as the second type of the FWM process is concerned, the effects of higher-order dispersion have not been considered in WDM soliton systems to our knowledge. Therefore, the main purpose of the present work deals with the study of the growth of the FWM in this kind of systems modeled by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with an additional TOD using a similar approach with the one done by Ablowitz et al [4,5]. We remind that this case is considered when the optical system has a vanishing group-velocity dispersion (GVD) or uses high intensity peaks (short and ultrashort pulses) [1][2][3]5].…”
