Abstract
The authors transmitted 16×10 Gbit/s wavelength division multiplexed signals over 240 km of dispersion-shifted fibre using periodic-unequally-spaced-channel allocation. A similar power margin to that obtained using unequally-spaced-channel allocation (USCA) was obtained, with far greater channel number scalability than USCA
