Subpicosecond soliton transmission over 22 km of dispersion-shifted fibre with loss compensated by Raman gain

摘要

We have experimentally demonstrated transmission of 800 fs solitons over 150 dispersion lengths of dispersion-shifted fibre. Experimental results clearly indicate that the use of readily available high power fibre lasers operating at 1535 nm makes it possible to utilize Raman gain in a simple, all-fibre configuration and achieve 100 Gb/s bit rate in a soliton transmission system.
