Experimental Investigation of Asymmetrical Filtered 43 Gb/s RZ-DQPSK

摘要

We experimentally investigate the impact of centre frequency drift of either laser source or optical bandpass filters for 43 Gb/s RZ-DQPSK We show by Monte-Carlo simulations that frequency drifts of 40 GHz result in only 3.6 dB OSNR penalty.
