Investigation of the limiting fibre nonlinearities and their suppression in 40Gbit/s optical transmission systems

This thesis investigates the fundamental limitations to optical transmission at a bit-rate of 40Gbit/s. The signal distortion due to nonlinear effects, noise and dispersion are analysed and techniques for their suppression through dispersion management and optimum choice of modulation format are dem...
