Abstract:Phase modulation schemes are attracting much interest for use in ultra-fast optical communication systems because they are much less affected by fiber nonlinearities than conventional modulation formats. Semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) can be used to amplify and process phase modulated signals. However, existing SOA nonlinear phase noise (NLPN) models are simplistic and, sometimes, inaccurate. It is, therefore, important to correctly model their behavior since NLPN is the main drawback in these applica… Show more
