Spectrally Compact Optical Subcarrier Multiplexing for Label-Switched Networks with 42.6 Gb/s Duobinary Payload and 2.5Gb/s NRZ Labels

摘要

A novel approach to optical subcarrier multiplexing with compact spectrum is demonstrated using a 42.6 Gb/s duobinary payload and 2.5 Gb/s NRZ label. The label causes <1 dB penalty on the payload receiver sensitivity.
