Effect of Nonlinearity on PMD Compensation in a Single-Channel 10-Gb/s NRZ System
نویسندگان
چکیده
We simulate a 2000-km 10-Gb/s single-channel NRZ system with different polarization mode dispersion compensation (PMDC) techniques and compare the effectiveness of compensation with linear and nonlinear signal propagation. Significant differences are found between the results of PMDC with and without nonlinearity for all the compensation techniques that are examined. An analysis of PMDC based on linear propagation would not properly characterize PMDC in the nonlinear case. A three-stage compensator controlled by optimizing the signal eye opening is found to give large performance improvement with nonlinear propagation compared to single-stage PMDC.

PMD induced transmission penalties in polarization multiplexed transmission
In this paper, we investigate for the first time chromatic dispersion and nonlinearity tolerances in the presence of polarization-mode dispersion (PMD) for polarization-multiplexed (POLMUX) 2 × 10-Gb/s nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) transmission. In polarization-multiplexing, the interaction between fiber nonlinearity and PMD can lower the nonlinear tolerance beyond the tolerances evident when conside...
متن کاملSimulation of Single - Channel Optical Systems at 100 Gb / s
With the help of a computer simulation, we have investigated the conditions under which the transmission of light pulses through optical fibers may be possible over thousands of kilometers at a bit rate of 100 Gb/s. Employing an amplifier spacing of only 20 km, nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ), return-to-zero (RZ), and dispersion-managed solitons (DMS’s) may all be useful provided that certain additiona...

With the fluctuation of the environmental factors, such as temperature, wind, and atmospheric pressure, the birefringence of a fiber changes along the fiber link and the effects of polarization mode dispersion (PMD) are random and time-varying, which makes it necessary to design a tunable and adaptive Fiber communication; Optical fiber; Fiber Bragg grating; Differential group delay; Dispersion ...

متن کاملTheoretical and experimental study on PMD-supported transmission using polarization diversity in coherent optical OFDM systems.
In this paper, we conduct theoretical and experimental study on the PMD-supported transmission with coherent optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CO-OFDM). We first present the model for the optical fiber communication channel in the presence of the polarization effects. It shows that the optical fiber channel model can be treated as a special kind of multiple-input multiple-outp...
