In this paper, we review different designs of distributed Raman amplifiers which have been
proposed to minimize the signal power profile asymmetry in mid-link optical phase …

In this paper, we review the historical evolution of predictions of the performance of optical
communication systems. We will describe how such predictions were made from the outset …

Different from traditional cavity-based fiber lasers, well-defined resonant cavities are
replaced by random feedback mechanisms for lasing generation in random fiber lasers …

In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate the benefit of polarization insensitive dual-
band optical phase conjugation for up to ten 400 Gb/s optical super-channels using a …

We demonstrate that a distributed Raman amplification scheme based on random
distributed feedback (DFB) fiber laser enables bidirectional second-order Raman pumping …

The nonlinear inverse synthesis (NIS) method, in which information is encoded directly onto
the continuous part of the nonlinear signal spectrum, has been proposed recently as a …

Transmission systems based on the nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT) can potentially
address the limitations in transmission reach and throughput set forth by the onset of Kerr …

Nonlinear Fourier transform (NFT) and eigenvalue communication with the use of nonlinear
signal spectrum (both discrete and continuous) have been recently discussed as a …

We perform a full numerical characterisation of half-open cavity random DFB Raman fibre
laser amplifier schemes for WDM transmission in terms of signal power variation, noise and …

We numerically optimise in-span signal power asymmetry in different advanced Raman
amplification schemes, achieving a 3% asymmetry over 62 km SMF using random DFB …
