In this paper, we present a simple analytical model to characterize the effect of fiber chromatic dispersion when using a multisection distributed-Bragg reflector (DBR) semiconductor laser as a mil
Dispersion-managed solitons and their applications in ultra-long-haul transmissions are presented.
We describe a scheme involving the insertion of segments of dispersion compensating fiber, pumped to yield Raman gain, at one or more intermediate points within each 80 km or greater span between a
We experimentally demonstrate a 10.7-Gb/s duobinary transmission system operating over a chromatic-dispersion range of ~12,000 ps/nm.
Recently, single-mode lightguides have been developed that achieve transmission losses as low as 0.5 dB/km and 0.2 dB/km at wavelengths of 1.3 /nm and 1.55 jum, respectively.1 When the total lightg
The hopping conduction problem is solved exactly for regular ladders with quinary jump rates.
Simultaneous measurements of microwave fading and lower atmospheric conditions were carried out in Georgia beginning in 1986 as a part of the continuing efforts to studying the line-of-sight digita
A novel multiplexing technique for multimode fiber is presented. The technique uses modal dispersion to dramatically increase the information capacity of multimode fiber.
Recently developed ideas in the field of wireless communications suggest that the presence of scattering can be used to enhance, rather than degrade, the total information capacity of a transmissio
Cell-to-cell variability in the timing of cell-fate changes can be advantageous for a population of single-celled organisms growing in a fluctuating environment.
