On the Performance of Nyquist-WDM Terabit Superchannels Based on PM-BPSK, PM-QPSK, PM-8QAM or PM-16QAM Subcarriers

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of Nyquist-WDM Terabit superchannels implemented using polarization-multiplexed phase shift-keying based on 2 (PM-BPSK) and 4 (PM)-QPSK signal points was investigated through simulations.

Approaching the Non-Linear Shannon Limit

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the recent progress of information theory in optical communications and describe the current experimental results and associated advances in various individual technologies which increase the information capacity, and confirm the widely held belief that the reported capacities are approaching the fundamental limits imposed by signal-to-noise ratio and the distributed nonlinearity of conventional optical fibres, resulting in the reduction in the growth rate of communication capacity.

Electrically tunable delay line using an optical single-side-band modulator

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a tunable delay line using an optical single-side-band modulator, a fiber Bragg grating and an optical fiber loop, where the number of times light circulates in the loop can be controlled by the electric signal fed to the modulator.
