Suitable Optical Fiber Communication Channel for Optical Nonlinearity Signal Processing in High Optical Data Rate Systems

Our research presents best candidate different commercial optical fiber communication channel for optical nonlinearity signal processing in high optical transmission bit rate systems in the presence of traveling wave semiconductor optical amplifier (TW-OSA). These optical fibers that are namely dispersion flattened fiber (DFF), reverse dispersion fiber (RDF), non zero dispersion shifted fiber, dispersion compensated fiber, single mode fiber, and hybrid RDF + DFF. Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system is employed to benefit 80 users with the high transmission bit rates up to 160 Gb/s over optical fiber communication channel length up to 200 km with trying to reduce nonlinearity effects by choosing suitable channel spacing and first or second order Bessel, Gaussian WDM Mux./Demux filter. Maximum peak power, optical signal to noise ratio, and signal quality factor can be measured to test the system performance. It is evident that RDF and hybrid RDF + DFF has presented the highest signal quality factor and optical nonlinearity signal processing in compared with other optical fibers communication channel. The obtained results were done using optiwave system software simulation version 7.
