Abstract
We demonstrate that the impulse noise generated from clipping AM signa ls limits QAM bit-error performance in AM-VSB/M-QAM hybrid optical tra nsmission systems. A new technique is developed to adequately predict QAM bit-error rate by defining a measurable parameter which can be obt ained from impulse counting using a standard spectrum analyzer.
