Abstract
The performance of amplified dense wavelength division multiplexed sys tems is theoretically analysed to evaluate the limitations owing to fo ur-wave mixing and gain peaking effects. Optimisation of dispersion ma nagement and wavelength allocation result in the possible transmission of 88 channels (0.25nm spacing) over 500km.
