Abstract

Through extensive direct modelling we quantify the error statistics and patterning effects in a WDM RZ-DBPSK SMF/DCF fibre link using hybrid Raman/ EDFA amplification at 40 Gbit/s channel rate. We examine the BER improvement through skewed channel pre-coding reducing the frequency of appearance of the triplets 101 and 010 in a long data stream.
