Abstract :
At 10 Gbit/s a 3.3 dB reduction of the power penalty induced by the chromatic dispersion of an 127 km standard single-mode fiber (G.652) has been achieved (BER=10/sup -9/, PRBS 2/sup 23/-1) by processing the detected signal in the receiver with a nonlinear equaliser realized as SiGe integrated circuit.
