Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the sensitivity degradation of a system due to various orders of chromatic dispersion. To do this, the power penalty of the uncoded and encoded pulse of a coherent ultrashort light pulse Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) communication system due to various orders of chromatic dispersions are analyzed. Analysis of uncoded pulse shows that the power penalty is unacceptably high when second order dispersion is not compensated. However we can obtain acceptable level of power penalties while compensating second and third order dispersion. Also, due to the high order of dispersion, the power of encoded pulse decreases as it propagates through the fiber which leads to a better Multiple Access Interference (MAI) than reported in previous papers.
