Abstract

Ultra-wideband (UWB) wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) transmission using high-order modulation formats is one of the key techniques to expand the transmission capacity per optical fiber. For UWB systems, the nonlinear interaction caused by inter-band stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) must be considered. Therefore, we have proposed and demonstrated a scheme to optimize the fiber input powers for UWB transmission systems considering the signal power transition caused by the inter-band SRS. We demonstrated a single-mode capacity of 150.3 Tb/s using the proposed power optimization scheme with 13.6-THz UWB in the S-, C-, and L-bands over 40-km transmission. Spectral efficiency of 11.05 b/s/Hz was achieved with 272-channel 50-GHz spaced WDM signals of 45-GBaud polarization division multiplexed 128 quadrature amplitude modulation.
