RESUMO
This paper reports record unrepeatered transmission results using forward and backward distributed Raman amplifications, large effective area ultra-low loss fiber and enhanced ROPAs with additional pumping fibers. Coherent 100 Gb/s with PM-QPSK modulation format and OOK 10G transmission are demonstrated over 607 km (97.2 dB) and 632 km (101.0 dB), respectively.
RESUMO
15 Tb/s unrepeatered transmission is achieved over 409.6 km (68.2 dB) of large effective area fiber using forward and backward distributed Raman amplification and a remotely-pumped erbium-doped optical amplifier. This result provides a record capacity-reach product of 6.14 Pb/s-km over a single fiber type. We also demonstrate channel growth from 10 to 150 waves within 61 nm amplification bandwidth.
RESUMO
Unrepeatered transmission of 8 x 120 Gb/s over 444.2 km (76.6 dB) and multi-rate transmission of 8 x 120 Gb/s and 9 x 10.7 Gb/s over a 75.4 dB span have been demonstrated with off-line digital processing for the coherent 120 Gb/s channels. Transmission of 2 x 120 Gb/s with 7 x 12.5 Gb/s over 78 dB is also demonstrated with a real-time ASIC processor. All transmission results have been achieved using standard effective-area pure-silica-core fiber using forward and backward distributed Raman amplification and remotely-pumped erbium fiber. ASIC real-time processed results match well with off-line processing.
