Abstract
We use temporal spectrum-slicing and optical time-division multiplexing to obtain 110 wavelength channels at 2.35 Gb/s from a single femtosecond fiber laser. We show that the output of this transmitter can be propagated over 362 km of standard single mode fiber using periodic amplification and dispe rsion compensation. Most transmitted channels have Q factors larger than 18 .34 dB corresponding to error doors below 10(-16).
