In this paper, bit error rate (BER) characteristics, sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are numerically investigated as a function of amplifier spacing that consisted of 1,200 km WDM systems with MSSI method. It is conformed that the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are gradually degraded as amplifier spacings are gradually expanded, but those are not largely affected by modulation format. The sensitivity of RZ transmission system is smaller than that of NRZ transmission system, but minimum allowable launching power of NRZ transmission system is smaller than that of RZ transmission system. And, it is confirmed that the best amplifier spacing in NRZ and RZ transmission system is less than 50 km, because the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are less affected by fiber dispersion, channel wavelength and pump light power.

Net residual dispersion (NRD) available to transmit RZ formats with different 24 wavelength as a function of duty cycles of RZ format and residual dispersion per span (RDPS) is induced by controlling precompensation only in 960 km optical transmission links of single mode fiber (SMF) with inline dispersion management (DM) for compensating of accumulated dispersion. It is confirmed that effective NRD range for different 24 wavelengths is gradually broadening as RDPS is more smaller, and as duty cycle of RZ format is more larger in the same RDPS.

In high capacity and long haul optical communication systems, signal distortion is induced by chromatic dispersion and nonlinear effects of optical fibers. Dispersion management (DM) combining with mid-spans spectral inversion (MSSI) is one of the various techniques for overcoming this drawback. The most simple configuration of DM link is obtained by uniformly distributing the lengths of single mode fiber (SMF) and residual dispersion per span (RDPS) over whole fiber spans consisted of optical link. In this paper, the system performances in the uniformly distributed DM link combined with MSSI are assessed as a function of the number of fiber spans, because the system performances in this configuration are used as the significant performance criterion in other link configurations, such as the artificial distribution or the random distribution of SMF lengths and RDPS.

In this paper, we investigated the characteristics of compensation for distorted NRZ signal and RZ signal in 320 Gbps WDM system as a function of channel input power, fiber dispersion coefficient and transmission length, respectively. The considered WDM transmission system is based on mid-span spectral inversion(MSSI) compensation method having highly nonlinear dispersion shifted fiber(HNL-DSF) optical phase conjugator(OPC) in the mid-way of total transmission line. We confirmed that the signal input power range compensated by MSSI is broadened by using RZ as a signal format in WDM system with small fiber dispersion coefficient, The range of fiber dispersion coefficient compensating overall distorted WDM channels is limited, because degree of compensation for distorted channel with low conjugated-wave power becomes gradually degrade as fiber dispersion coefficient becomes gradually higher. It is showed that RZ format and NRZ format is suited for long-haul transmission in WDM system with small fiber dispersion coefficient and with large fiber dispersion coefficient, respectively.
