Several approximate non-linear fiber propagation models have been proposed over the
years. Recent re-consideration and extension of earlier modeling efforts has led to the …

The problem of analytical evaluation of the maximum rate at which information can be
reliably transmitted on a nonlinear wavelength division multiplexing fiber-optic channel with …

We evaluate the impact of variable-code-rate transceivers on cost, capacity and survivability
of wavelength-routed optical networks. The transmission rate and reach trade-off is …

One of the factors limiting the potential capacity of a long submarine cable is the need to
power the optical amplifiers which compensate for fibre loss. This paper shows how a …

We develop an analytical theory which allows us to identify the information spectral density
limits of multimode optical fiber transmission systems. Our approach takes into account the …

We transmit 250x100G PDM RZ-16QAM channels with 5.2 b/s/Hz spectral efficiency over
5,530 km using single-stage C-band EDFAs equalized to 40 nm. We use single parity check …

We investigate the performance of very long submarine 100 Gbps PM-QPSK WDM systems
as a function of the span length, attenuation and effective area (Aeff) of optical fiber. It is …

In recent years, the booming bandwidth demands of dedicated mobile services have driven
the rapid development of optical transport networks (OTNs). Through the innovative use of …
