Abstract

An investigation has been carried out, by computer simulation, to evaluate the impact of dispersion compensation configurations on 960 Gbps wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) system with optical phase conjugator (OPC). The considered dispersion compensation configurations in this research are conventional one-end type and bi-end type. One-end and bi-end type are made by using one dispersion compensating fiber (DCF) and two DCFs to decrease dispersion accumulated in one single mode fiber (SMF) span, respectively. It is found that bi-end compensation configuration offers the equal performance with that of one-end configuration in WDM system with residual dispersion per span (RDPS) of 400 ps/nm if net residual dispersion (NRD) had to be optimized in each cases.

분산 보상 구조가 광 위상 공액기 (OPC; optical phase conjugator)를 갖는 960 Gbps의 파장 분할 다중 (WDM; wavelength division multiplexed) 시스템에 미치는 영향을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 살펴보았다. 본 연구에서 고려한 분산 보상 구조는 전통적인 one-end 구조와 bi-end 구조이다. one-end 구조와 bi-end 구조는 하나의 단일 모드 광섬유 (SMF; single mode fiber) 중계 간격마다 축적된 분산량을 줄여주기 위하여 각각 하나의 분산 보상 광섬유 (DCF; dispersion compensating fiber)와 두 개의 DCF를 사용하여 만들어진다. 전체 잉여 분산 (NRD; net residual dispersion)이 최적화되면 중계 거리 당 잉여 분산 (RDPS; residual dispersion per span)이 400 ps/nm인 WDM 시스템에서 bi-end 구조와 one-end 구조는 거의 동일한 성능을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.
