O. Leclerc et E. Desurvire, INVESTIGATION INTO THE ROBUSTNESS OF 100GBIT S (5X20GBIT/S) REGENERATED WDM SOLITON TRANSOCEANIC TRANSMISSION TO LINE BREAKS AND REPAIRS/, Electronics Letters, 33(18), 1997, pp. 1568-1570
The authors analyse the effect of line repairs after cable breaks in t
ransoceanic regenerated WDM soliton systems. A theoretical 5x20Gbit/s
WDM system with 50km/350km amplifier/regenerator spacing is used as a
test example. The system robustness to the insertion of up to 10km of
repair fibre jumper corresponding to high-depth breaks is numerically
demonstrated.
