Abstract
We study the problem of optical noise growth, driven by modulation instability in fiber systems with dispersion management. We point out the role of dispersion-map asymmetry in sidebands generation nearby a pumping continuous wave, presenting a closed-form approximated theory to characterize the spectral distribution of noise. We propose some design guidelines for low-noise multi-wavelength optical systems, through an accurate prediction of noise growth in each channel, including the effects of map asymmetry and third-order dispersion.
