Title
Design of multi-terabit/s terrestrial transmission systems facilitated by simple analytical tools
Abstract
For 30 years, the capacity distance product of lightwave communication systems has continuously doubled every 16 months, to reach more than 10 Pbit/s.km in 2002. Along with this growth, the complexity of system engineering has increased as linear and nonlinear transmission impairments have become more stringent. Dispersion management is widely accepted as a powerful technique to mitigate some of them, but requires numerous experiments or time-consuming numerical simulations to be performed optimally. We exhibit two analytical rules that provide meaningful insight on this matter. Then we show how these rules helped us to improve the transmission distance of a recent 5 Tbit/s transmission experiment from 1,200 km to 1,500 km.
