            Abstract : 
Summary form only given. Accumulated noise due to linear and nonlinear effects in the transmission fiber is the major cause of performance degradation in current long-haul dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) systems. Intra- and inter-channel noise evolution in nonlinear, lossy and dispersive optical fibers are systematically reviewed and uniformly treated as a nonlinear random process.
