Abstract
Experimental BER measurements of a 64-QAM signal in a hybrid AM-VSB/QA M optical fiber transmission system are shown to be in good agreement with a corrected and reinterpreted theory of impulsive and Gaussian no ise based on Middleton's class A impulsive noise model, Fiber dispersi on induced distortion of the chirped laser output is also shown to adv ersely affect the QAM signal.
