Cf. Lam et al., Performance of pin and APD receivers in high-speed WDM data transmission systems employing spectrally sliced spontaneous emission sources, ELECTR LETT, 36(18), 2000, pp. 1572-1574
Spectral slicing is proposed to support broadcast services on WDM passive o
ptical networks. The receiver performance in high-speed WDMI systems using
spectrally sliced spontaneous emission sources is studied. The effects of s
pontaneous; spontaneous emission kat noise on both pin and APD receivers ar
e investigated experimentally.
