Abstract :
Theoretically studies the crosstalk penalty of coherent optical frequency division multiplexing systems by varying the intermediate frequency and the channel spacing. Results, applicable to ASK, PSK and CPFSK modulation formats, provide a quantitative criterion for designing a practical multichannel coherent lightwave system
