  • Abstract
    We describe new distance-dependent experiments investigating infra-channel nonlinear distortion in 40 Gbit/s OTDM transmission over standard fibre. Simulations results predicting significant reduction in the distortion due to intra-channel four-wave mixing by using alternating pulse polarisation were experimentally confirmed.
