Abstract :
A novel system mitigating self-phase and cross-phase modulation effects simultaneously using optical dispersion compensation at optical nodes and multichannel single-stage digital backward propagation (DBP) is proposed. Experiments demonstrate 2.4 dB Q-factor improvements with both self-phase modulation and cross-phase modulation compensation.
