Abstract
Ultra-wideband (UWB) wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) transmission, which utilizes low-loss spectral windows of single-mode fiber for data transmission, is a highly promising method for increasing the capacity of optical communication. In this paper, we investigate the performance of a UWB WDM transmission system that covers the widely used C+L band as well as the additional O-, E-, and S-bands. We establish the transmission system for UWB and discuss the effects of the channel, including Kerr nonlinearity and inter-channel interference from inter-channel stimulated Raman scattering (ISRS) between O-, E-, S-, C-, and L-bands. Moreover, we demonstrate an optimization scheme for compensating the spectral power tilt caused by SRS in the S+C+L band system, which utilizes the Raman amplifier and the partition particle swarm optimization (PPSO) algorithm. The results show that the power tilt value of the algorithm is reduced from 18 to 2.93 dB, and the iteration speed is improved by 10% compared with the normal particle swarm algorithm. The scheme provides an efficient way to improve the generalized mutual information (GMI) performance of UWB WDM systems.
