Abstract

The all-optical multiwavelength network is a prime candidate for the future ” information highways”. In order to make these networks a practical reality, a number of questions need to be answered in terms of specifying components and subsystems. A critical issue involves bit error rate (BER) floors that degrade the normal statistical BER performance curves.
