Abstract

Trans-oceanic soliton transmission systems employing optical amplifiers and ‘sliding-frequency guiding filters’ have the potential to reach capacities of 100 Gbit/s through extensive wavelength division multiplexing [1]. The sliding-frequency filter transmission line lends itself to wavelength multiplexing because of the periodic nature of the Fabry Perot filter. Each wavelength can be guided along the transmission fiber without interactions with neighboring solitons, excessive timing jitter or noise accumulation. However, practical application of soliton systems has been slowed by lack of a reliable pulse source.
