Abstract :
Summary form only given.The performances of soliton transmission systems were evaluated by considering the noise-induced timing jitter, the fluctuation of soliton amplitude, and the fluctuation of soliton energy. The most commonly used method of measuring the system performance in an optical transmission system is the decision circuit method of measuring Q factor. The Q factor can be calculated by sampling the signal´s amplitude at bit centrum, or by integrating its energy over a bit duration.
