  • Abstract
    By transmitting trains of 214 bit pseudorandom words in a recirculating loop containing strong, sliding-frequency guiding filters, ´error-free´ (measured BER-9) soliton transmission at 10 Gbit/s, single channel, and at 20 Gbit/s in a two channel WDM is demonstrated, over paths as great as 20000 km and 13000 km, respectively.
