Interaction of Semiconductor Laser Chirp with Fiber Dispersion: Impact on WDM Directly Modulated System Performance
Abstract—In this paper, we have analyzed the interaction of semiconductor laser chirp with the fiber chromatic dispersion characteristics in order to study the impact on a Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) directly modulated system performance. Also, we have demonstrated that the system transmi...
