Abstract :
A single frequency-periodic narrow filter converts DPSK to intensity modulation in a high number of WDM channels. It also strongly enhances their tolerance to chromatic dispersion and is exploited in a 16×10 Gbit/s transmission over 240 km G.652 fibre with no chromatic dispersion compensation.
