Abstract:The transmission performance of single-sideband alternate mark inversion return-to-zero (SSB-AMI-RZ) formats, with duty-cycles of 15%, 30% and 50%, in long-haul 40 Gbit/s/channel ultra dense WDM systems with 50 GHz of channel spacing is assessed through systematic numerical simulation. After optimizing the bandwidths and detuning of optical multiplexer and demultiplexer, the dispersion maps are optimized for each duty-cycle. From these, the tolerances to the in-line residual dispersion (IRD) and total residual… Show more
