Effects of Four Wave Mixing on an Optical WDM System by using Dispersion Shifted Fibre
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 length and channel spacing on the bit error rate and received or resultant power are investigated in our study. The performances are analyzed in terms of transmitted channel power, channel spacing and bit error rate (BER) of the system.

Suppression of Four Wave Mixing Based on the Pairing Combinations of Differently Linear-Polarized Optical Signals in WDM System
Data transmission in optical systems and increased transmission distance capacity benefit by using optical amplification wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology. The combination of four waves (FWM) is a non-linear effect in the wavelength division multiplex (WDM), when more than two wavelengths of light in a fiber launch will occur. FWM amount depends on the channel, the channel spaci...

Introduction: The use of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) and optical amplification as a method of increasing the information capacity and/or reach in optical fibre systems has led to significant propagation impairments owing to fibre nonlinearity [1]. Important nonlinear effects causing inter-channel crosstalk in WDM systems are four wave mixing (FWM) and cross phase modulation (XPM). FW...

The transmission performance of WDM transmission systems is influenced by many effects according to the type of optical fiber employed in the system. Japanese highspeed transmission systems use dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF). It is well known that the transmission distance of WDM systems employing DSF is restricted by fiber four-wave mixing (FWM).

The nonlinear effect degrades the system performance. Because nonlinear effects tend to manifest themselves when optical power is very high, they become important in WDM. Four-wave mixing (FWM) is one of the dominating degradation effects in wavelength divisionmultiplexing (WDM) systems with dense channel spacing and low chromatic dispersion on the fiber. Four wave mixing (FWM) is a parametric ...
