Kerr Nonlinearity Compensation Using Polarization-Independent FOPA

by Isaac Sackey

Transmission of high data capacity includes the use of higher-order modulation formats in a wavelength-division multiplexed network. Moving from lower spectrally-efficient modulation formats to higher-order modulation formats requires higher optical signal-to-noise ratios (OSNR). High OSNR eventually requires higher signal launch power per fiber span. However, Kerr nonlinearity provide an upper bound to the maximum transmittable signal launch power...
