Y. Yamada et al., 25 GHz spacing ultra-dense WDM transmission experiment of 1Tbit/s (100WDM x 10Gbit/s) over 7300km using non pre-chirped RZ format, ELECTR LETT, 35(25), 1999, pp. 2212-2213
1 Tbit/s (100 WDM x 10 Gbit/s) transmission over 7300km with 25GHz (0.2nm)
channel separation has been achieved using a non pre-chirped RZ format sign
al. The ultra-narrow channel spacing of 0.2nm was adopted to fully utilise
the bandwidth of the long-distance erbium-doped fibre amplifier chain. As a
result, error-free transmission is possible using forward error correction
.
