Abstract :
Summary form only given.High-rate time-division-multiplexed return-to-zero transmission has been demonstrated using both linear and nonlinear transmission in systems employing dispersion-shifted fiber as the transmission medium. Dense-dispersion-managed transmission links, in which the local nonlinearity is utilized to balance the average dispersion of the system, provide another avenue for high-bit-rate communication. Theoretical studies have demonstrated the feasibility of transmitting 100 Gbit/s over distances greater than 1000 km. Using a dense-dispersion map we have successfully transmitted an error-free 200 Gbit/s return-to-zero data stream over 100 km.
