Analytical design of 160 Gbits/s densely dispersion-managed optical fiber transmission systems using Gaussian and raised cosine RZ ansätze
We present an easy and efficient analytical method to design 160 Gbits/s densely dispersion-managed optical fiber transmission systems using Gaussian and raised cosine RZ ansatze.
Radiating and nonradiating behavior of hyperbolic-secant, raised-cosine, and Gaussian input light pulses in dispersion-managed fiber systems.
We address the problem of optical light pulses, called dressed pulses, which do not match the stationary pulse profile of a dispersion-managed (DM) fiber system and we theoretically analyze the associated radiation. Comparing hyperbolic-secant, raised-cosine, and Gaussian pulse envelopes, we show that the general radiation figure is highly sensitive to the input pulse profile. As common general features for these pulse profiles, we find a rich variety of dynamical states that includes weak-, moderate-, and strong-radiation states, depending on the map strength of the DM fiber system. We demonstrate the existence of two intervals of map strengths where the emitted radiation is of considerabl…
Effectiveness of nonlinear optical loop mirrors in chirped fiber gratings compensated dispersion-managed transmission systems
International audience; We show that nonlinear optical loop mirrors can dramatically suppress the side peaks induced by the group delay ripples in chirped fiber gratings compensated dispersion-managed systems and significantly improve the system performance.
Suppression of pulse pedestal using nonlinear optical loop mirrors in grating-compensated dispersion-managed fiber transmission systems
Pulse pedestal suppression by nonlinear optical loop mirrors is utilized to reduce the intersymbol interference caused by the group delay ripples of a real grating profile in dispersion-managed communication systems compensated by chirped fiber gratings.
Analytical design of densely dispersion-managed optical fiber transmission systems with Gaussian and raised cosine return-to-zero Ansätze
We propose an easy and efficient way to analytically design densely dispersion-managed fiber systems for ultrafast optical communications. This analytical design is based on the exact solution of the variational equations derived from the nonlinear Schrodinger equation by use of either a Gaussian or a raised-cosine (RC) Ansatz. For the input pulses of dispersion-managed optical fiber transmission systems we consider a RC profile and show that RC return-to-zero pulses are as effective as Gaussian pulses in high-speed (160-Gbits/s) long-distance transmissions.
Grating compensated dispersion-managed systems incorporating nonlinear optical loop mirrors
In this work, we investigate the use of nonlinear optical loop mirrors (NOLMs) in DM fiber systems compensated by CFGs with GDR by launching a 128-bit Gaussian-shaped pseudo-random bit sequence having pulse width of 5 ps for simulating a 40 Gb/s system. The dispersion map contains a fiber segment of length 10.3 km and a CFG with dispersion of -15.6 ps/nm. We consider a lossless grating and the GDR is modeled by a sinusoidal function for simplicity. We have shown that the use of NOLMs can substantially improve the transmission performance in a grating-compensated DM fiber system even with presence of amplifier noise and random variations of GDR, parameters in CFGs along the propagation dista…
Gaussian pulse propagation in dispersion-managed systems using chirped fiber gratings with group delay ripples
We study the propagation of Gaussian-shaped pulses in grating-compensated dispersion-managed systems with group delay ripples (GDR). We show that the intersymbol interference caused by the GDR in gratings can be substantially reduced by nonlinear optical loop mirrors and the 40-Gb/s system performance can achieve transoceanic transmission in the presence of amplifier noise and random variations in ripple period of the gratings along the transmission line.
Radiating and non-radiating trains of light pulses in dispersion-managed optical fiber systems
We show theoretically that the radiation picture of small trains of closely packed light pulses with Gaussian input profile, exhibits both some similar features and some fundamental differences when compared to the radiating behavior of a solitary pulse in a dispersion-managed optical fiber system. For small map strengths, the pulse trains strongly radiate away energy, and there, the total amount of radiated energy increases linearly as a function of the length of the pulse train. For large map strengths, the amount of radiated energy increases rather smoothly as a function of the length of the pulse train. We establish the existence of a map strength region, in which light pulses with init…
