  • fiber four wave mixing in multi amplifier systems with nonuniform chromatic Dispersion
    Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1995
    Co-Authors: K. Inoue, Hapnes Toba
    Abstract:

    Fiber fiber-wave mixing (FWM) is studied for multichannel multi-amplifier systems composed of short fibers with different zero-Dispersion Wavelength. An analytical expression describing FWM in these systems is derived. Using the expression, crosstalk is calculated for various combinations of fiber lengths, which are selected according to a random function, and allowable fiber input power is evaluated. The results show that the allowable input power for nonuniform Dispersion is larger than that for uniform Dispersion by several dB, depending on system conditions. >

  • Crosstalk and power penalty due to fiber four-wave mixing in multichannel transmissions
    Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1994
    Co-Authors: K. Inoue, K. Nakanishi, Hapnes Toba
    Abstract:

    The influence of fiber four-wave mixing on multichannel transmissions is investigated. We present strict and approximate theoretical treatments for evaluating power penalty with intensity-modulated/direct-detection (IM/DD) and FSK/direct detection. A comparison of calculations shows that both methods yield the same result in the small penalty region. Using these treatments, power penalty and allowable fiber input power are derived for various system conditions. It is shown that the power penalty is not uniquely determined by the crosstalk level for CW lights, depending on the demodulation scheme and channel spacing, especially in the zero-Dispersion Wavelength region.

  • Suppression technique for fiber four-wave mixing using optical multi-/demultiplexers and a delay line
    Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1993
    Co-Authors: K. Inoue
    Abstract:

    A technique is proposed for suppressing four-wave mixing (FWM) in optical fiber lines that have multistage optical amplifiers. The phase relationship of the FWM light components is randomized by combinations of optical multi-/demultiplexers and a delay line, so that the total FWM light power is reduced. A preliminary experiment confirming the suppression mechanism is carried out, and the effect of the new suppression technique in multichannel systems is evaluated. The calculations show that the technique reduces the FWM crosstalk in the zero-Dispersion Wavelength region.

  • four wave mixing in an optical fiber in the zero Dispersion Wavelength region
    Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1992
    Co-Authors: K. Inoue
    Abstract:

    Fiber four-wave mixing (FWM) in the zero-Dispersion Wavelength region is described. The phase-matching characteristics are studied in the Wavelength region where the first-order chromatic Dispersion is zero. The results show that the phase-matching condition is satisfied and FWM light is efficiently generated at particular combinations of input light Wavelengths. It is also shown that the deviation of the zero-Dispersion Wavelength along the fiber length plays an important role in FWM behavior. >

  • Wavelength conversion experiment using fiber four wave mixing
    IEEE Photonics Technology Letters, 1992
    Co-Authors: K. Inoue, H Toba
    Abstract:

    Wavelength conversion using fiber four-wave mixing in an optical fiber is demonstrated. Utilizing the Wavelength region around the zero-Dispersion Wavelength of a fiber, 622 Mbt/s FSK signal light is converted from 1555.2 to 1547.6 nm with a conversion efficiency of -24 dB. >
