  • Abstract
    We analyze the reduction of Gordon-Haus jitter using a mid-span phase modulator and post transmission dispersion compensator. The timing jitter variance at the the receiver may in principle be reduced by a factor of 20, however pulse broadening considerations may reduce this. We also examine how the phase modulator may cause nonGaussian statistics at the receiver.
