S. Bigo et al., ERROR-FREE SOLITON TRANSMISSION AT 20 GBIT S OVER 7150 KM THROUGH ALL-OPTICAL SYNCHRONOUS PHASE MODULATION/, Electronics Letters, 33(6), 1997, pp. 449-450
AU-optical soliton synchronous phase modulation through transmission f
ibre is shown to enable error-free propagation of 20Gbit/s signals up
to 7150km without the need for dispersion management. Tolerance to imp
erfect clock-signal synchronisation is characterised experimentally.
