Abstract

Intraband crosstalk induced by back reflections, mainly Rayleigh backscattering is experimentally and theoretically studied in a bidirectional system using the same wavelength. Assuming that 1.0 dB of power penalty is an acceptable design criterion, the distance between the adjacent nodes is limited to be 40 km. The derived crosstalk penalties are in excellent agreement with those obtained from experiments.
