Abstract
Transmission performance of a 10-Gb/s integrated electroabsorption modulator/DFB laser has been evaluated in terms of the eye margin degradation and the receiver sensitivity penalty caused by the chromatic dispersion in the standard (non-DSF) fiber. Combination of low extinction ratio (/spl epsi/=5 dB) and negative chirp (/spl Delta/v=-0.01 nm) operation allows 10-Gb/s transmission over 130-km standard fiber without any dispersion penalty in receiver sensitivity (for 10/sup -9/ BER) and with a 7% eye margin for 10/sup -15/ BER.
