Abstract:In this paper the combined impact of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and four-wave mixing (FWM) on the downlink channel performance of dense wavelength division multiplexed-gigabit passive optical networks (DWDM-GPONs) has been compared with the single impact of FWM via signal-tocrosstalk ratio (SXR) simulations performed on center downlink channels of 7-, 15-and 31-channel DWDM-GPON systems. Simulation results show that SRS compensates negative impacts of FWM and compensation significance enhances with incr… Show more
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.
