Abstract

The phenomenon of four-wave mixing in passive optical networks with wavelength-division multiplexing of channels has been studied. This paper presents the results of modeling the distribution of combination frequencies over the spectrum as a function of the number of channels and the channel frequency spacing. To suppress crosstalk between the channels at combination frequencies, it is proposed to divide the spectrum into two parts and select a guard band between them. The effect of combination frequencies on the signal transmission quality is considered as a function of the channel power, channel frequency spacing, and transmission length.
