Distributed measurement of chromatic dispersion by four-wave mixing and Brillouin optical-time-domain analysis.
A new nondestructive method for measuring the spatial distribution of chromatic dispersion along an optical fiber is presented. It is based on using Brillouin optical time-domain analysis to probe the power distribution of the four-wave mixing generated by two continuous-wave lasers. The results obtained prove that this new method is capable of providing better performance than comparable techn...
متن کاملEffect of Chromatic Dispersion on Four-Wave Mixing in WDM Optical Transmission System
Crosstalk due to four-wave mixing (FWM) is the dominant nonlinear effect in long-haul multi-channel optical communication systems which can severely limit system performance. In this paper, we have simulated the effect of chromatic dispersion on FWM using equal and unequal channel spacing in terms input/output spectrum, eye diagram and bit error rate. Results show that the effect of FWM reduces...
متن کاملSpatially resolved measurement of chromatic dispersion and Brillouin shift along single-mode optical fibers
We present a new technique for simultaneous measurement of chromatic dispersion and Brillouin shift distribution along conventional, single-mode optical fibers used in telecommunications. It is based on performing Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis (BOTDA) over the four-wave mixing generated by two low-power pumps (<10 mW). Unlike others, this technique can measure any arbitrary value ofdis...
متن کاملDistributed birefringence measurement with beat period detection of homodyne Brillouin optical time-domain reflectometry.
We report a distributed optical fiber birefringence measurement method based on homodyne Brillouin optical time-domain reflectometry (BOTDR). Unlike conventional BOTDR, which requires scanning of the local oscillator to get the Brillouin spectrum, instead we propose the beat period measurement of fast and slow components of the backscattered Brillouin signal in single-mode fibers using homodyne...
متن کاملEffects of Four Wave Mixing on an Optical WDM System by using Dispersion Shifted Fibre
The trend toward higher bit rates in lightwave communication has interest in dispersion-shifted fibre to minimize dispersion penalties. At the same time optical amplifiers have increased interest in wavelength multiplexing. These two methods of increasing system capacity if used together can result in severe degradation due to fibre nonlinearity. So the effect of dispersion, input power, fibre ...
