Prospects for inserting parametric amplifiers in optical communication networks

M.E. Marhic, N.J. Doran

Research output: Chapter in Book/Published conference output › Conference publication

Abstract

We investigate to what extent the unique features of OPAs (large bandwidths, 0 dB noise figure, phase conjugation, signal regeneration) can be combined and exploited in future long-haul communication networks. Network PMD can complicate the use of phase-sensitive amplification.
