THE MANY BENEFITS OF NONLINEARITY FOR THE ALL-OPTICAL, TERABIT, LONG-DISTANCE NETWORK

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The terrestrial network in the US is rapidly evolving to terabit-level, dense WDM that remains all-optical (without electronic regeneration) over many thousands of kilometers at a stretch. The stringent demands of such service can be met only by taking full advantage the many benefits that can derive from fiber nonlinearity, viz., dispersion-managed solitons, Raman gain, and optical regeneration.
