Abstract :
A circulating-loop experimental technique to simulate the jitter accumulation of a chain of fiber-optic regenerators is described. This technique allows system designer to establish the jitter accumulation characteristics of systems without the need for many test regenerators. An analytic description of how well the loop technique simulates a china of identical fiber-optic regenerators is presented along with a comparison of calculated and simulated jitter accumulation
