The channel capacity of a nonlinear, dispersive fiber-optic link is revisited. To this end, the
popular Gaussian noise (GN) model is extended with a parameter to account for the finite …

This paper serves to highlight the gains in SNR margin and/or data capacity that can be
achieved through a proper optimization of the transceiver parameters, for example, launch …

The stochastic behavior of inter-core crosstalk in multi-core fiber is discussed based on a
theoretical model validated by measurements, and the effect of the crosstalk on the Q-factor …

Coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) is an attractive
transmission technique to virtually eliminate intersymbol interference caused by chromatic …

This paper investigates the physical layer optimization as a means of improving the
utilization of limited network resources. A transparent optical network operating in the …

Nonlinear noise in 100-Gb/s dual-polarization quadrature phase shift keying transmission
has been investigated using a straight-line test bed. The optimal signal power and OSNR …

We report on the first experimental demonstration of superposition coded modulation (SCM)
for polarization-multiplexed coherent-detection optical fiber links. The proposed coded …

In this letter, we experimentally study the statistical properties of a received QPSK modulated
signal and compare various bit error rate (BER) estimation methods for coherent optical …

We summarize the most recent research of the Georgia Tech Terabit Optical Networking
Consortium and the state-of-the-art in fiber telecommunications. These results comprise high …

In this paper investigate influence of nonlinear effects with no compensation link. The Non-
linear optical phenomena greatly enhanced our knowledge about interaction of light with …
