Functional Relation Between Signal Distortion and a Figure of Merit for Nonlinear Process in Dispersion-managed Optical Transmission

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

We show that the minimum EOP (eye-opening penalty) obtained by tunable dispersion compensation is a function of a figure of merit for a nonlinear process, I<sub>0</sub>L<sub>eff</sub>, where I<sub>0</sub> is the optical intensity and L<sub>eff</sub> is the effective length of the interaction region. Using this rule, we do not need to conduct nonlinear simulations in all the cases of signal power and transmission length to obtain the signal distortion in dispersion-managed optical transmission. Instead, we need to conduct a simulation in only one case of a signal power and find the functional relation, and then we can obtain the values of the signal distortion in other cases using the discovered functional relation. This technique can reduce the number of nonlinear simulations to less than 10%.
