Abstract :
This study experimentally demonstrates that the implemented deconvolution technique can accurately estimate the standard deviation due to amplified spontaneous emission noise (ASE) noise without prior knowledge of the transmission path. As a consequence, a correct deconvolution and separation of sources of impairment from the histogram is possible.
