We describe the measurement of reflection-induced penalties in Raman amplifier systems.
The use of distributed Raman amplification in transmission fiber spans can improve the optical signal-to-noise ratio and decrease the effects of nonlinearity in transmission systems.
Several conflicting hypotheses have been proposed over the years in an attempt to explain the transhorizon radio field intensities, which in some cases are hundreds of decibels stronger than predic
An electrical model which is known to characterize a reactive discontinuity on a lossless transmission line is applied to determine the maximum signal reflection from a bend in a printed microstr
A N U M B E R of investigators have studied the propagation of electro^ magnetic waves in a bent pipe of rectangular cross-section, the bend being along an arc of a circle. H. Buchholz 1 , S.
When the end of a single mode fiber is polished and placed in an index-matching liquid, a reflection will occur.
In this paper we report a 40 Gb/s operation of Remote Amplified Modulator at the temperature up to 85ºC within the C- and L-band spectral ranges.

We present a reflective decision control mechanism for dealing with synchronization and scheduling issues in a distributed computing environment.
We present a complete characterization of reflective electroabsorption modulators (EAMs) monolithically integrated with semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs), components that are capable of opera
