Abstract :
Summary from only given. In-service quality monitoring of high bit-rate optical transmission systems can be achieved at the full line rate by using optical sampling systems. Here, we report on the quantitative evaluation of 160 Gb/s eye diagrams measured after 80 km of fiber transmission.
