Abstract :
A study on the impact of fibre nonlinearities in electronically pre-distorted wavelength-division-multiplexed transmission systems is presented. Large performance variations are observed due to the strong dependence of cross-phase modulation on pre-distorted neighbouring channel waveform variations.
