Abstract

We report on the ultra-wideband (UWB) transmission of a 103 nm signal over 3 × 100 km of standard single mode fiber (SSMF), a widely-deployed fiber in terrestrial transmission networks. In such UWB systems, nonlinear effects such as stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) must be taken into account in the system design. We characterize the SRS impact in high power regime for this UWB spectrum. We study the evolution of SRS over the bandwidth when tilting the input spectrum to counter the inter-band power transition. We transmit 254 probabilistically constellation shaped (PCS)-64QAM channels over 300 km of SSMF and demonstrate a 107-Tb/s transmission throughput over a continuous 103 nm optical bandwidth using backward Raman pumping and SOA technology.
