Abstract :
100 Gb/s per channel optical communication is the natural next step for undersea DWDM optical communications. In this article we review some of the key advanced technologies that can have high impact on the future 100Gb/s undersea optical communications, and further present 100 Gb/s optical DWDM transmission over 10,000 km optical fibers.
