We show a new graphical method to identify and create configurations yielding to nonlinearity compensation in a fiber transmission system. Method validity is shown with regards to different link configurations and different compensation techniques. It is demonstrated that a unifying principle can always be applied, because only one physical effect is involved, even if different practical arrangements are proposed. Disclosed method allows gaining physical insight and can be applied to derive new compensation techniques; two examples of configurations derived using the proposed technique are also reported.
We report on a novel technique to compensate for all-order polarization-mode dispersion. By means of this technique, based on a suitable combination of phase modulation and group-velocity dispersion, we compensated for as much as 60 ps of differential group delay that affected a 10-Gbit/s return-to-zero data stream.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
