Two main limitations to the capacity of a long-haul soliton communication system are the amplified spontaneous emission noise-induced [or Gordon-Haus (GH)] time jitter of the output pulses and soliton-soliton interactions. In recent years, several methods have been proposed and demonstrated for controlling the stability of optical soliton transmissions. In this work, I show that a simple way to control and suppress both the GH jitter and pulse interactions is the periodic injection of a weak cw or time-modulated beam with the same frequency of the soliton signal.

Abstract
Two main limitations to the capacity of a long-haul soliton communication system are the amplified spontaneous emission noise-induced [or Gordon-Haus (GH)] time jitter of the output pulses and soliton-soliton interactions. In recent years, several methods have been proposed and demonstrated for controlling the stability of optical soliton transmissions. In this work, I show that a simple way to control and suppress both the GH jitter and pulse interactions is the periodic injection of a weak cw or time-modulated beam with the same frequency of the soliton signal.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
