All-Optical Nonlinear Pre-Compensation of Long-Reach Unrepeatered Systems
We numerically demonstrate an all-optical nonlinearity pre-compensation module for state-of-the-art long-reach Raman-amplified unrepeatered links. The compensator design is optimized in terms of propagation symmetry to maximize the performance gains under WDM transmission, achieving 4.0dB and 2.6dB of SNR improvement for 250-km and 350-km links.
