Abstract
We investigate the potential use of photonic bandgap fibers in non repeatered transmission systems. Our simulations show that significant improvements in system reach should be possible as a result of the reduced nonlinearity providing that the fiber losses can be reduced to the 0.2 to 0.3dB/km regime.
