40-Gbits transmission in dispersion-management links with step-index fiber and linear compensation

|December 13, 2007
Abstract:
The dynamic behavior of single-channel transmission in standard fibers with strong dispersion management and linear compensating devices was theoretically and numerically analyzed. We compared a single pulse and a pseudorandom sequence to highlight the relevant roles played by nonlinearity-induced spectrum distortion and pulse interaction. As a result, 40/Gbit/s transmission on an 1800-km dispersion-management link with 100-km spans of standard fiber was obtained.

Transmission Line Design Considerations
Aluminum has become the material of choice for overhead transmission lines, surpassing copper due to its abundance and cost-effectiveness. The most prevalent type is the aluminum conductor, steel-reinforced (ACSR), which combines aluminum strands around a steel core. Other variants include all-aluminum conductors (AAC), all-aluminum alloy conductors (AAAC), aluminum conductor alloy-reinforced (ACAR), and aluminum-clad steel conductors. Advanced designs, such as aluminum conductors with steel...
Lossless Lines
In electrical engineering, a lossless transmission line is characterized by a purely imaginary propagation constant and a resistive characteristic impedance. The ABCD parameters, which describe the relationship between the input and output voltages and currents, indicate an equivalent π circuit with an imaginary series impedance and a shunt admittance. This results in a transmission line that, when the product of the phase constant (beta) and the length of the line is less than pi, exhibits...
