Information-rate analysis of a fiber-optic transmission system including 2R signal regenerators
Abstract:
Performance of a single-channel fiber-optic transmission system in which signal regenerators are periodically inserted is analyzed in terms of information rate (IR) considering channel memory. Limitations in using regenerators in a system having non-zero residual dispersion between the regenerators are discussed. It is shown that a type of signal impairment caused by the interaction between the transmission-fiber dispersion and the regenerator nonlinearity is pattern-dependent and will be mitigated by the use of sequence estimation after detection at the receiver.

01:26Raman Spectroscopy Instrumentation: Overview
The monochromatic laser source, typically using visible or near-infrared radiation, generates a highly focused beam of light. This light interacts with the molecules of the sample, scattering some of the light. Liquid and gaseous samples are usually tested in ordinary glass capillaries, while solids can be analyzed as powders packed in capillaries or as potassium...
