Abstract

Nonlinear optical effects in fibers present power transmission limitations for optical communication using glass fiber waveguides. Both the intensity and the spectral characteristics of the optical signal can be affected by various nonlinear processes such as stimulated Raman scattering, stimulated Brillouin scattering, self-phase modulation, and parametric mixing. In optical signal transmission for communication, the frequency conversion caused by these nonlinear effects can lead to undesirable signal loss and signal distortion as well as cross talks in wavelength-multiplexed optical fiber systems.
