Impact of DCF properties on system design

Abstract

The dispersion-compensating fiber is an important optical element of current and future optical networks. In this paper, we review the impact that various properties of dispersion-compensating fibers has on the performance of optical communication systems.

Advanced Modulation Formats and Multiplexing Techniques for Optical Telecommunication Systems

“…Table 2. Performance and complexity comparison between different multiplexing techniques and modulation formats at 40 Gb/s aggregation bit rate (Daikoku, Yoshikane, & Morita, 2005;Essiambre, Winzer, & Grosz, 2006;Jumpei et al, 2007;Leibrich, Serbay, Baumgart, Rosenkranz, & Schimmler, 24-28 September 2006;Martelli et al, 2008;Ohm & Freckmann, 2004) Advanced modulation formats such as QASK, QAM, QPSK, QDPSK and DB double channel capacity of optical network with requiring the same spectral band as TDM. However, they have complex and costly transmitter and receiver.…”
