Analytical modeling of cross-phase modulation in coherent fiber-optic system.

Abstract

An analytical model to calculate the variance of cross-phase modulation (XPM) distortion in a wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) fiber-optic system is developed. The method is based on the first order perturbation technique and it is applicable for both dispersion managed and dispersion uncompensated systems. For dispersion managed systems, it is shown that the variance of XPM distortion scales as Nx where N is the number of spans and x ∈ …
