Robustness of 40 Gb/s ASK modulation formats in the practical system infrastructure.
2006
In this work, we analyzed by means of numerical and laboratory experiments the resilience of 40 Gb/s amplitude shift keying modulation formats to transmission impairments in standard single-mode fiber lines as well as to optical filtering introduced by the optical add/drop multiplexer cascade. Our study is a pre-requisite to assess the implementation of cost-effective 40 Gb/s modulation technology in next generation high bit-rate robust optical transport networks. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
Multi-level optimization of a fiber transmission system via nonlinearity management
2006
Nonlinearity management is explored as a complete tool to obtain maximum transmission reach in a WDM fiber transmission system, making it possible to optimize multiple system parameters, including optimal dispersion pre-compensation, with fast simulations based on the continuous-wave approximation. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
Highly-chirped similaritons generation from a mode-locked fiber laser
2007
In this communication, we report experimental and numerical results on dynamics and propagation of self-similar pulses in a passively mode-locked ytterbium doped DC fiber laser.
Experimental signatures of extreme optical fluctuations in lumped Raman fiber amplifiers
2012
International audience; In this work, we experimentally investigate several temporal and spectral methods to highlight extreme fluctuations which can develop during the Raman amplification of an ultrashort pulse train. Forward and backward pumping schemes are compared to dual pass configurations.
